It's Ranch Burnetti, and I got my dogs coming over
here. Looks like they killed the chicken again. Adam Curry.
It's Sunday, October 25th, 2026. This is your award-winning GiveOnation
Media Assassination, episode 1915. This is No Agenda. Coming to
you from the heart of the Texas Hill Country, it
is time once again for No Agenda. It is our
19th anniversary. Stand by because we got a special guest
here on today's show. J. Cal, Jason Calacanis, joining us
in 90 seconds from now. Brooklyn kid bank slips, cash
that is top made. Empire on better man's, bad with
the high taste. Dad won the Masters, lad made the
stockpate, made a means venture. the cash from the dark
side. One business card with that laminated top face. Look
at it, give it back, capital lock, babe. First round
of funding this card in a handshake. Even his networking
came with the clawback. Publish, editor, dragging his own freight.
Luggage card, literature, stacks on the concave. Sidewalk before he
could cash in on stock games. He carried the coverage
back. Stone your stock brands back with the hot tapes
We'll be right back. Value for value. No stock in
the outrage. He wants his business card back. Jason Calacanis.
No agenda in the morning. In the morning. In the
morning, Jason Calacanis, J. Cal. That was incredible, Adam. The
lyrics, I'm listening to the lyrics, and I'm like, okay,
it's going to be AI slop. It literally read the
New Yorker article on my early career when I was
walking around with my zine in New York. It knew
all the facts that I had written. I was so
broke that when I had the zine, I had a
luggage cart, and I would walk around New York with
300 issues, and I'd give them out to technology companies
down on Lower Broadway in Manhattan. That's hilarious. What about
the hot tapes, though, the Betamax? What was that? Were
you selling porn? Okay, so no. My first business… uh
was i must have read my uh book as well
so of course why not here's what happened this is
a great brooklyn story my this guy who was a
connected guy was in for four grand to my dad
playing backgammon in the early 80s. So this is like
a big... And so anyway, this is a vig every
week. You pay off a little bit. You pay a
little interest, whatever. My dad wasn't in the mob. He
just happened to play backgammon and poker with them. I
know some of these people. They're very nice people. You
don't want to owe them any money. My dad... Had
a bar where all kinds of different people hung out.
So anyway, the guy comes to see my dad. He's
like, here, I'm paying it off, whatever. And he said,
oh, your kid likes the Star Wars, right? And he
said, yeah, he's obsessed. So he gives my dad a
bootleg copy of The Empire Strikes Back. And the tape
– was um you know vhs tape so i went
home my dad brings it home i watch it and
then i uh read in like pc magazine or one
of these things that you can connect to uh vhs
place uh players together and if you hit play on
one and record on the other you can like real
time make a copy oh wow what what a discovery
Yes. And so I'm like, oh, my God. But, you
know, it's real time. So you have to play the
whole tape. So I would sit there with my friend.
He would bring his VHS over. We connect these two
thousand dollar machines and we make four copies a day
on the weekend, Saturday and Sunday. Then I would sell
them for 20 bucks each at school. So I'm selling
them and I make a business card and I laminated
on my typewriter. It says Jason's hot tapes because I
don't. know anything i'm a 15 year old and so
i start selling eight tapes a week at school this
is real money um and so i get pinched by
my math teacher this is good this is a story
i've never heard jacow so he pulls me in after
school he says i need to talk to you i
come in he goes i know you're selling the empire
strikes back The kids told me they're all talking about
it. And I look at him and he says, is
that true? And I look him dead in the eyes
and I said, you interested? He goes, actually, yeah, my
kids love this movie. I'd like to get a copy.
I said, okay, well, they're normally 20. I'll give it
to you for 10. He goes, uh. Okay. He pulls
that mug sign. He buys a copy from me. And
I was like, wow, capitalism is really awesome. And that
just got me started. It was a crazy, crazy story.
But here we are. Yeah, man. 19 years. We're 19
years. When's the first time you listened to No Agenda?
I mean, it was definitely in year one because there
was like, you know, a little Tempest in a teapot.
But, oh, John's. doing a different podcast than twit and
uh oh it's also sunday it's a similar time or
whatever so this is like little no no no it
was always after twit we we always want the same
day though the ideal well first of all let me
just celebrate for a second with a couple of we've
got the horns we always have to celebrate an anniversary
oh It takes my whole breath away when I do
that. The whole idea was that we wanted to grab
the online audience that was already online anyway. And like,
well, why don't we just have people switch over to
no agenda? We kind of timed it. I mean, I
think we started maybe an hour after Twit was usually
over. Yes, I think so. Yeah, sometimes Twit would run
long. Yeah. But I think John would also sometimes just
leave. I got to go, you know, and he have
something like I got to base my meat or something.
But really, it was just coming in to do the
show. So we're actually quite grateful to Leo. Yes, absolutely.
You know, for us being able to felch his audience.
You were on the other day. I was on the
other day. I do it like maybe once a year,
twice a year or something, but it's very hard for
me to go on because – Yeah, because everybody hates
Elon and you're Elon's proxy. What are you doing? I
try to explain to people I am not Elon's proxy.
I'm just his friend, and we were friends before he
was – Even famous, like he is today, even before
Tesla. I mean, I knew him in the PayPal, you
know, kind of pre-SpaceX days. Long story short, you know,
there was a time period during the Trump peak derangement
syndrome. And some people can have valid criticism to the
guys. I'm not saying you can't. But it was to
the point at which there were guests. like, I guess,
Cory Doctorow or other ones who would not appear if
I came on. Yeah. And I'm like, guys, what are
we doing here? It's like – it's a roundtable. It's
a great radio if we disagree about DRM or whatever.
Yeah, you'd think. Yeah, you'd think. Yeah, and I don't
need to answer every question about my brother over here.
You don't have to answer every question about JCD. JCD
didn't have to answer for you. We were all sovereign
individuals in the world, but something happened in America where
– If you're standing, you know... whatever, five feet to
the left of a guy, you're responsible for everything they've
ever done in their entire life. Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Oh, goodness gracious. Oh, God, here we go. Now it's
a hoot. This better be AI. Now it's a hoot.
No, this is not AI. There it is. Oh, God.
Is Bernetti in his truck taking babies again? I don't
know. I am in the diesel. Hazel Powered Studio, boys.
Good morning, boys. In the morning. Coming at you. In
the morning to you, Dana. Get ready. Hold on. Let's
play a little clip from last Sunday's This Week in
Tech with Jason Calacast. Oh, God, yeah. This week in
Tech. And our system is broken because money plays too
big a role. I agree. I agree. If they should
get rid of Citizens United, that would be the best.
A hundred percent. Huge mistake. That was the Supreme Court
decision that said a corporation is an individual with First
Amendment rights, and so we can't stop them from contributing
unlimited funds to campaigns, which is how Elon can give
$250 million. I suggest you judge... Yeah, if you want
to judge Elon, just judge him by the products he
makes. But also, I mean, I hate to say it,
but I'll give him and I'll give Apple a pass.
Oh, no, I hate to say it. They gave $25
million to the ballroom. Ballroom. Of course. The game on
the field. I mean, I don't like it. Oh. I
think if you're a customer of these companies, you could
vote with your feet. Although I know it, I still
buy Apple. Oh, please. Crap, I still buy. I'm all
in on Apple. Apple is producing great stuff. It's awesome.
You've got to just judge these people on the books,
on the products they build, and understand they're playing the
game on the field. When Obama was in Netflix... backed
up the truck, and gave him $30 million afterwards to
produce podcasts. Like, no podcast experience, and we're just going
to end, like, here's… Hold on. Podcast experience? I'm in.
You don't need experience for a podcast. Look at Brunetti.
That's what I'm doing here now. I'm getting experience and
building up my resume. All I need is a diesel
truck. and a little Starlink, and I can get it
going. I love Bernadette's fourth act. I was there in
Hollywood. Is it my fourth act? I don't know. I'm
still figuring it out. All I said was before my
70th birthday, I'd like to have a fourth act, and
it's Diesel Podcast. Okay, I can already tell. It's my
ranch era. This show is going to go completely off
the rails. That's obvious. I'm not going to say it
all the time. You've lost already. Well, actually, I wasn't
sure if J. Cal was going to show up, so
I was just here as backup. I appreciate it. You
were getting a little nervous. I was worried. I'm like,
he never worried. Here's how it works with J-Cow. Like...
Hey, can you come on Sunday? Yeah, okay. Send an
invite to whatever the email address is. And you send
it, and then it never gets like a confirmation. You
know, the Google Calendar, I'm like, well, that must be
some automatic system. It'll say yes. And then I send
him a DM on Twitter. I send him a WhatsApp.
Yeah. Like unread until. I have a confession. I have
a confession. Okay. Okay. I would getting all of your,
I'm getting all your calendar invites and everything. I just
know that the ban of your existence is booking the
show, so I just troll you. I'm like, is there
a show? Are we doing a show? No, I'm joking.
I didn't do that. It worked. It worked. It worked.
It worked. So, I mean. I'm glad Dana's here because.
Yeah, let's rock. We had a hilarious moment on the
previous show. uh some donation because and by the way
jay cal you don't have to stay for the donations
tina's going to actually step in and help me read
the donations for today which is i'm really excited about
that she's like hey should i help you because you
know it was a four-hour show uh on uh on
thursday jason what are you doing to the mic dude
yeah let me be myself for a second i'm just
yeah Just extending it. So I just – I know
everyone hates the AI slot, but the – I got
COVID from a sailor in Seattle. Just cracked us up
so much. I got to play this. I got to
play this song. It's only a minute and a half.
It was just too good. It was the fall of
2019 down on Puget Sound. A sailor off a freighter
came a-carousing through town. He winked and bought the rum
and said, you're free, quite the catch. Three days of
fever later, boys, I've surely met my match. I got
COVID from a sailor in Seattle. A strapping semen can
and falling free. Everybody now. She gave her more than
memories that night. I got COVID from a sailor in
19 Yee-haw! When I tell the story, people Seattle's short
and I'm a movie And a fork is just a
fork I got a fork in the bones I love
it I'm calling the fork Hey I love this Okay,
all the ladies on the desk floor I love this
so much Men's are crying with an eye Now ladies
are right Everybody to the center That's right And do
the Adam Cutting And Dosto Dosto from a sailor in
Seattle. Hey! A steppin' semen, tanin' tall and free He
gave them more than memories That night upon the water
I got told it from a sailor in 19 Oh,
man. This is the stuff that we're so legendary for.
These types of stuff. Even though this is AI, still
the lyrics match. matter. I'm so glad that it made
it into it. When you texted me that clip, I
was like, oh, man, if we only had it for
the show, obviously we couldn't. But I'm glad that you
played it. It's so funny. It would have been perfect.
It would have been perfect. It would have been perfect.
Okay. So, gentlemen. But that is, by the way, that
twit clip is literally the bane of my existence. It's
like every time I go anywhere, people are like, hey,
can you comment on this person? Can you comment on
Saks? Can you comment on that? I'm like – Or
you could ask them, or you could listen to when
they give their 17 podcasts a month. Well, they don't
have the access, and then they want to try to
pigeonhole you into the same thing. That's no fun just
to go straight to the source. And the crazy thing
is that I started a… a private DM group on
X, you know, like, cause Dana and I, we want
to get to Elon. We're trying to get, cause Dana,
Dana, check it out. Dana lost his number. I did.
Well done, man. Well, it wasn't intentional, but I changed.
I never saved people's numbers, but I had his email,
but he stopped responding to my emails because I was
just annoying him, I think. So I don't blame him.
People are also busy. Yeah, a little bit. You know
how busy. He just had a Grockbot respond to me.
My Grockbot's going crazy. I was literally doing... GrokBot stuff
all this past week. It's so unhinged. It's completely unhinged
at this point. And then I don't know if you
guys saw the Unitree robot. What's that? Yeah, yeah, I
think it's pretty awesome. I mean... No, no, no. We'll
send it over to you, Bernetti. But they have this
Unitree robot. which is the Chinese kind of Optimus that's
already out. And they're very like kind of Bruce Lee
slender versions of robots. With long legs, with very long
legs. Very long legs and arms. Great reach. So like
kind of really intimidating looking. And they made a Kung
Fu one that like –
runs around and like does knee strikes to the side
of a car in an abandoned warehouse and then flips
over things. And like you're like, OK, so that's a
Black Mirror episode come to life. And when you watch
it, did you think it was Adam? Did you think
it was AI? And how many seconds before you were
able to say slop? Real product. Unfortunately, I just consider
everything to be slop these days. Everything. Everything is slop.
So you assumed it's fake. Yeah. When I saw the
robot picking up the car to drag the dead body
out from under the front wheels, like, okay, that's that.
But all of it. Wait, is it AI slop or
is this thing real? The whole world is fake and
gay. Everything. It's done. It's over. It's extremely. Except for
this program. Well, obviously. I was on gummies watching the,
when I was on gummies watching the roaster unveiling. I
was so confused. Oh, my God. What happened to you?
Hold on a second, because I actually heard Jason question
this. I mean, he likes. Question what? Look, he's a
showman, and he likes music. This kind of thing. And
this event was clearly showbiz. Yeah. Yeah. You know, he
showed it to me like three or four months ago,
that same demo. And he was like, hey, check this
out. And, you know, we're personal friends, whatever. So he
showed it to me and I was like, is that
AI? uh slop and he was like no no it's
real i'm like one more time let me see it
one more time and so he should see me getting
the photo i was like that doesn't look real i'm
sorry brother uh you can land two rockets but that
and it still doesn't look real ah all right jaycal
slop or not i mean it's definitely real um now
Is it a viable flying car that you will purchase
next year? No. No, absolutely not. Obviously, it's a proof
of concept type thing. But – Did you guys see
the documentary yet? The Elizabeth Holmes documentary? Hold on. Before
you go there, I just want to comment on you
saying, I'm friends with Elon, whatever. Personal friend. Whatever. Whatever.
I just asked for the fourth investor in Uber. I
won like 17 Emmys. Whatever. All right. Now, Dana has
seen the documentary. So talk amongst yourselves, girls. Okay, ladies.
Well, so anyway, the documentary has this great moment. And
Dana, there's like many great moments in this thing. And
you obviously are an expert in this field. But the
one great moment is Elizabeth Holmes. Just trying to explain
to Nathan Fielder that she did nothing wrong, obviously. And
she says, yeah, well, but this Theranos machine is capable
of doing 140 tests on this machine. And he's like,
yeah, but you went to jail because he couldn't do
the 140 test. He says, well, the machine is capable
of this. And it's like, well, they didn't have the
right software. It didn't have the right chemistry. But she
kept saying with the right chemistry, right? I think it
was with the right chemistry. So then there's like caveat
on caveat. And he's like, you know… And this documentary
works on four or five levels, Adam. One of them
is entrepreneurs making claims that do or do not come
true. And then when is it lying and when is
it being delusional? When is it being – I don't
know, hyperbolic, whatever, or just having aggressive targets. The DARPA
cars drove themselves. You remember this, Adam, in the early
2000s when DARPA did the self-driving challenge. The cars drove
themselves, dot, dot, dot, into a ditch and burst into
flames. But they did drive themselves, and now we're sitting
here 20 years later. And Wemos and all kinds of
cars and FSD is all driving itself. So, you know,
the timeline of when you're right. But anyway, it's well,
it goes back to when the first video of him
landing a rocket. I remember watching a newscast, a local
newscast in L.A. and the newscaster was like, well, that's
obviously a simulated video. And. that seemed crazy to land
a rocket. So the same thing I think applies now.
It seems crazy. This car is flipping and seems completely
impractical. And – In the instances that he showed it
to us, it is impractical, but there will be practical
uses for the technology that's been developed for this car.
It could be as simple as the suction aspect of
making it the best handling car in the world. We
need more suction. And suction. Doctor. Doctor. And thrusting. Okay,
there's zero practical use for this car. Okay, well, there's
two technologies in the car. So there's three technologies in
the car, actually. One of them is there's giant fans
under the car, Adam, that's... Reverse suck it into the
ground. Makes a corner. So that is totally applicable. There
was one other type of car that happened. Hold on.
What about gravel and stuff like that? This is only
for track use. This is for track use kind of
thing. Very practical. I can talk on that, Adam. I
have a big device that goes around my property and
sucks up all of the leaves, and it uses a
fan. So it also pulls in a lot of debris.
And so there are special blades that are made for
any rocks or things that get sucked up. So I'm
assuming it would have a similar type of fan. My
Kuboto has that too. Yeah, it will do that. What
kind of Kuboto you got? Oh, goodness gracious. I got
like a 360 ride-on. Oh, goodness gracious. How big is
your ranch? How big is yours? Mine is huge. It's
around 40 acres. Yeah, so we're similar. You take care
of it all yourself? I have the wildlife exemption, so
I let it go wild, and we just have to
put out food for the deer. You have to put
out food for the deer? That's illegal, dude. Fire in
J. Cal's place. We have to do bird feeders. The
deer is our own choice. We have to do water
remediation. We have to kill ant hills, red ant hills,
I think. Oh, yeah. So there's like a series of
things. Yeah. Anyway, what I would say is you have
to see the documentary, Adam. It is outstanding on all
levels. Here's my question. This is probably a good one
for you. To me, I mean, people scam... with their
pitches to VC all the time. And without all kinds
of examples of AI magic that turned out to be
anonymous Indians. But Elizabeth Holm gets popped for 10 years.
To me, the only reason that happened is because she
embarrassed this special Kleiner Perkins group, you know, with like
the generals and all these captains of industry. Yes, I
can actually explain it. So here's the difference. There is
when you're raising money, you have to be incredibly buttoned
up. And if you lie or extend the truth. When
raising money, there's a special term for this. Securities, fraud.
Then there's when you say something on stage like Steve
Jobs and you're like, hey, this is going to be
incredible. You're holding it wrong. And that – those things
are like product claims, et cetera, and you can get
in trouble for that if you don't deliver the product
or whatever, but there's a lot of leeway there to
– Talk about your mission. Talk about your end goal.
Hey, we want to have a flying car. It's Joby,
right? And Joby and Archer are very close to having
actual flying cars. But when you're in the meeting with
an investor, if you say we have these five clients,
and I had a startup do this. They said they
had five clients or so, and they had these four
employees, and an angel investor would put like 50K in
it. called those five people and said, do you work
for this company? And they were like, three of them
said no. But he just pitched with the deck that
said they had. He kept that in his pocket. The
company started to fail a year later. And he said,
I'm demanding my money back. Here's the evidence you committed
securities fraud. If I don't get my money back by
this day, I'm going to send you to the SEC.
He did wind up. Getting sent to the SEC. That's
what Elizabeth Holmes did, allegedly, or it's not even allegedly,
according to the courts. She was lying to people while
selling securities. That's the big no-no. Now, will you eventually
be able to take a small amount of blood and
do a large number of tests? Well, of course, it's
going to get better and better. Yeah. Her timing is
probably 20 years off. So this idea that you could
do a tiny microvile, you know, the one she holds
up, that's like the size of a TikTok. Like it's
not going to be that. It's going to be one
vial of blood instead of seven. You know, when we
go for these seven vials of blood situation to get
whatever number of tests, 100 tests, it's going to go
down to one vial of blood. for 140 tests. That'll
happen in 10 years. And then people will be sitting
there saying, see, Elizabeth Holmes was unfairly prosecuted. She was,
you know... Seemed pretty extreme 10 years. 10 years is
a lot. I mean, maybe it's five years as a...
Christian, dare I say. I've got a... Yeah! I don't
want to hit the top rail here, but... We're out
to get Burnetti. That's our next target. We're here. We're
going to convert him. Yep, we are. Hey, we've got
a guy we want to introduce you to. His name
is Jesus. He's really dope. He's got some great ideas.
He does. He's nice. He's nice. He's a great guy.
He's there for you. You ready to accept him? Anyway,
the point is I felt great sympathy for her and
her family, and then it's extremely hard to feel sympathy
sometimes because she knows she did the wrong thing, etc.,
and then she had two kids right before going into
jail. Yeah, that's kind of messed up, I think. There's
a very cynical take on that, and then there's a
beautiful take on it. What's the beautiful take? I mean
the beautiful take is if she's innocent and she has
these incredible kids, the world needs more great kids, right?
And so we just need to have more – Kids
on the planet and that there's something special about being
a mom and she wasn't denied being a mom because
she was innocent. You get what I'm saying? Yeah, but
if you know you're about to go, what's playing in
the background, Jason? Oh, man. Don't tell me this. Oh,
God. Now it's turning into a roundtable. All right, guys.
Welcome to the Loser Brigade. Here it is. This is
the B Team. Andrew Horowitz is here. I think he's
cleaning muscles or something. Is he shucking oysters? Oh, wait.
You guys can see that. Oh, of course. I forgot.
Oh, wait. Hey. I think he's shucking. I don't see
anything. Oh, man. Curry cast. Look at Curry oysters. There
he is. Wait, what oysters? It sounds like he's on
a ship. Hold on, hold on. I hear water running.
Are you in the shower? Horowitz. Horowitz. Can you hear
me? Can you hear me? Yeah, we hear you. Yeah,
we hear you. Yeah, I'm at the airport. I'm at
L.A. airport here, three and a half hours away, and
trying to get back to Fort Lauderdale. Oh, that's an
incredible story, Andrew. Wow. Thank you. The detail level in
that story? Wow. The twists and turns and turns. Now
we just need Rob Dew and Matt Long, and then
it's a party. Well done. They're welcome. I think the
Curry Castle can handle five. I'm not sure. This is
the first time I've had three on ever. We're stress
testing it. Yeah. Congratulations, Adam. You've recreated the retarded all-in
podcast. Now, this is like when the Avengers turned into
like, you know, the Hulk and – four other characters
that nobody knows the name of. Well done. This is
like you go from a fun. This is like the
all in podcast is like the soul house. Yes. This
is like Spearmint Rhino. It's like the all out podcast.
Yeah. Literally the loser brigade here. Wow. What's everybody doing
this weekend? I don't know. I'm going to Phoenix. I'm
at an airport. I travel. Tried to get upgraded to
Economy Plus. I snuck into the lounge and I'm eating
bad Danish. Yeah, that's pretty close to what the situation
is here. But, you know, I'm glad to get out
of Los Angeles. Are you in a bar, Andrew, watching
the game? I am just walking along the bathroom area
in Terminal C or something right now. So Andrew Horowitz
is in an airport bathroom. Doesn't seem suspicious at all,
Brunetti. Is it bathroom 14, stall 6? According to LX.
Adam, what happened to the show? See what happens, Adam?
You bring these guys on. No, the show is a
train wreck. In fact, I'm tweeting this right now. Train
wreck. It's a literal train wreck. Train wreck. It's a
terrible train wreck. Come on. It's the 19th anniversary. It's
supposed to be a party. Well, it is a party.
He's burning the boats. He's literally like, I got... This
is the penultimate episode. Let's burn it all down. The
entire legacy burned in two shows. Well done, Adam. No.
All we miss is Dvorak. He would have been like,
take them off. This is horrible. He's trying to drop
it as things. This is bad for the show. Hurry
up. I'm out of here. I got some meat in
the oven. Wrecking the show. Wrecking. You're checking the show.
You see, it's not supposed to be guests or advertising.
Just tell people to send them money, okay? Yeah. Where's
the money? Jason, what tequila were you drinking last night?
I was drinking my own all-in tequila last night, and
I got a little bit tipsy, and then I was
like, I don't know, baldy. On Twitter, who wants to
ask money? I'll give you ask money. And I just
started giving people money on Twitter. You're so gauche, man.
You're so gauche. I don't deserve this Twitter money. I'll
give it away. I'll give you $420. Who wants a
$69? I'll give you $69. All right. Well, since we're
all here. uh and there's nothing else i i mean

off oh there's so many stories with him i mean
you know from the uh the squeaky chair of course
The constant preparation issues that we had throughout the DH
unplugged, you know, 18 years with DH unplugged with him
and all that. And then my favorite, always looking for
the stop. You know, John was always looking to pick
a stop and he'd go for this angle that he
had. We tried to go for this thing where he
would look for inside traders all the time. And he'd
be like looking at this all the time. going through
our stock fix on a weekly basis. But my favorite
stuff is when we would talk and all of a
sudden you do a left turn into a traducan recipe.
You know what he's doing? Traducan, a classic, yes. He
would just talk about that and then some kind of
wine that he's going to put with that. And then...
Over the years, I asked about the wines that he
had and that we drink. Invariably, he would never drink
any of the wines, it seemed. There's some kind of
a basement. There's some kind of a storage facility somewhere
with all of this wine that somebody's got to crack
into. I have a feeling that the family is doing
that. I mean, they may sell it off piece by
piece. I think it's all vinegar now. Well, that'd be
perfect. And that was the other story. There you go,
the vinegar book. What ever happened to the vinegar book?
Well, hold on. The vinegar book will be a separate
chapter in the Dvorak family cookbook, which I understand is
forthcoming. But I do know that I've spoken to Jay
and to Brennan that the vinegar. I mean, I've only
been to his house once, so it was arguably. Yeah.
Let's call it cluttered. But in the kitchen, he had
a 10 by 10 area of vinegar of just bottles
of vinegar. you had you seen that brunetti is that
what was it was it on the floor i think
so yeah it's just yeah i did see a bunch
of i didn't realize that was a vinegar collection but
there was a bunch of stuff sitting on the floor
they should just make that house into a museum and
let no agenda people rent it out as an airbnb
kind of like the and like the and frank house
yes and then you just put this leave the studio
exactly as it is, like stacks of paper for stacks
of paper. Plastify it. Spray plastic over it. Oh, yeah.
Put loose icon or whatever that stuff is over it.
But then if you come there on a Sunday, you
can rent it out as an Airbnb for $1,000. You
can host No Agenda. So just no agenda. It's just
randos renting the Airbnb. Just like a live stream that's
just on constantly. Oh, that's even better. 24-hour live stream
of lunatics who rent the Airbnb. She, we've got an
exit strategy here. I croak. We take the studio and
then we rent it out for $1,000 a day. $365,000.
You know, that's basically what Larry Ellis. so much pie
and purse jet fuel. I want to bring Geraldo Rivera
in to do the mysterious opening of the closet. There's
not enough time. There's not enough time. Oh. You mean
the vault? The vault? Al Capone's vault? Let's just make
a fake vault. Let's make the whole thing fake. It's
a great idea. I've always... I had this vision where
he would... Open that door and just slightly crack it
open and hold it and try to grab things out
of it because he opened the door entirely. It would
just like explode. Kill him. Yeah, for sure. Brunetti, you
didn't know him that long, but you I mean, you
talk to him probably as much as anybody. Yeah, two,
three times a week, sometimes more. And he would usually
call pretty late at night, in the evening, so it
depended on how far into the gummies I was. But
it started with my wife. She's like, oh, here we
go. And then she would get really annoyed, and so
I would have to either not take his call or...
But then she started realizing that he was a wealth
of information, so he turned into like our Google. So
when her and I would get into a discussion that
we disagreed on, she would always go, call John. Call
John. Put him on the speakerphone. If you're so right,
Burnetti, why don't you call JCD, put him on speakerphone,
and have him tell you, which is a better operating
system, Linux or Windows. Yeah. My wife is going to
love your impression of her. The farthest from the truth.
She grew up in Beverly Hills. She grew up in
Beverly Hills, man. He's not a New Yorker. Okay, Mr.
Emmy Awards, why don't you call John C. DeVock and
we'll find out. How did you meet John? How did
you meet JCD? Oh, let me tell you. I'll tell
you exactly how this goes. Here's how. I guarantee you
because this is. Here's what John would do. He would
watch the donations come in. And he'd say, hmm, I
wonder who this person is. And then he'd look at
the address, if you were stupid enough to put your
address in the payment details. What's the estimate on this?
Exactly. He would hop on Google, and he'd fly around
the house. He's like, hmm, okay. Then he'd go to
Zillow. Look at the estimate. This guy's loaded. This is
already. This person's not donating enough. And so I'm sure
that he looked at your address and went, wait a
minute. And then he looked you up. Because that's how
I found out about Sir Mark and Dame Astrid. He's
like, dude, these are really famous architects. These guys are
loaded. It wasn't always about that. This is our score.
It's $88.88. It's not an appropriate donation if you're living
in an $8.8 million mansion. So I'm sure that John
emailed you, Dana, and went, hey, you're famous. What's your
deal? It wasn't quite like that, but he did email
me after I made a donation, and you misgendered me
on the phone, and then you're the one that looked
me up. And then he went on about the show.
And then John emailed me, I think kind of an
apology afterwards. Oh, boo. We just started communicating then, and
then we met up at a winery. He sort of
used me... As a way in to go in to
do some barrel tasting at Verite. Hey, let's go to
this place. Come with me and we'll get in for
sure. No, actually, they made a donation to the show,
and they said, bring the Hollywood producer. And so he
pushed me, and we went, and it was actually really
nice. They set up this whole – it was during
COVID, and they set up these outdoor tents and everything,
and they had the winemaker, the French winemaker, and his
daughter, who's now the winemaker there. And John – it
was – It was a pretty miserable experience for me
and my wife because we were just sitting there listening
to John kind of berate the winemaker about the wine.
This is no good. This will make good vinegar one
day. Oh, maybe next week. Yeah, and that was the
first time we met in person. And then we stayed
in touch. He came out to ranch a couple times.
Every time I was in the Bay Area, we always
met up. And for dinner, he would pick the restaurant,
which would always be one of the most expensive restaurants.
Oh, yeah. Hold on. We've got to pause the story
here. Which what? When did he bang you out the
most? When did he bang you out? What? You know
he started from the bottom of the wine list and
worked backwards. Like what was the biggest – ticket item
he ever ordered alaskan king crab but double stuffed field
chop what he what he ordered whatever he wanted i
don't even i never looked at what that i just
i always knew it was going to be expensive after
the first dinner it's like all right i'm in for
a few grand oh wow between yeah yeah it was
always i think adam's do what adam you do your
share then I bought dinner for Adam in San Francisco.
Adam's an appropriate guy. He's not going to kill you.
Hold on. My dog is in here. Okay. Well, listen.
I got his ranch, Bernetti, and I got my dogs
coming over here. Looks like they killed the chicken again.
Hold on. I got to fill it up with diesel.
Bowie. Bowie. It's okay, buddy. Bowie. It's okay. You're going
to kill the chicken. Bowie. I can't wait to get
alone. I can't wait to Calacanis does me. Come on,
do me. It'll come to me at some point. Just
do a Christopher Walken and you got Calacanis. No, you
know. Bobo, quiet. Oh, oh, oh. My favorite JCD. You
were trying to get to these JCD moments. Yeah. I
got so many. But I think... You know, John, when
he got his hooks into something, he was good at
doing. Keeping the bit going. You know what I'm saying?
So like, oh, I'm going to be the guy who
orders too much wine on these venture capital investors at
CES. Remember he ordered like eight grand in wine, whatever.
So he knew that was a bit. So like, oh,
Bernetti's coming. Great. Let's go to a Michelin star place.
It was like it's like half bit, half fun. And
that's what makes him JCT. That's what you love about
him. But the best one, which nobody really knows enough
about, was there was a moment in time when Apple
was kind of struggling pre-iPhone. And the Mac loyalists were
the weirdos, right? They were like the designers. It just
was like a little cult on the side, and then
Windows was everything. And all he would do is drag
these guys. He would just drag them. Now, see, if
Apple made an elevator, it'd be like one button, third
floor. You're shit out of luck. You want to go
to two? You want to go to the lobby? You
want to stop it? You call it off? No, sorry.
Took those buttons out. This is the genius of Steve
Jobs. Give me a break there to cancel the iPhone.
See? And he just... He would bait them every time,
and they just – they came back for more. It
was like a – he was like their dom, and
they were just – would come back to the trial
every time, whatever the product was, iPod, AirPods, iPhone. Yeah,
you see these AirPods? They don't have a cable. What's
that? One falls out, it goes right in the shore.
Who comes up with a product like that? You see,
you drop your ear parts. You know, you know, so
at the, at the memorial service, which was actually, it
was beautiful, although weird was there was like a Chinese
urn and that was John, you know, on a table.
Like that didn't feel right, but okay. Okay. But every
single person who spoke, and some spoke for quite a
while, they all said... Void zero went on forever. Love
void zero. He came all the way from Amsterdam. He
had something to say. But every single person who spoke
had some story about how John had helped them personally
In their career, had coached them, had, you know, had
said, hey, you know, maybe you do this or call
this guy. And then there was one guy who got
up and he was like old, old school. I'm talking
CPM days or something. And he said that what John
really was doing when he was complaining about products was.
He was making them better. He was trying to make
them better. He saw that the product was flawed, and
he just complained bitterly about it. And this guy actually
had a good point. He said, John could have gone
to any tech company, been a consultant, been consulted for
all of them, and made tons of money improving their
products. And that is kind of what he did. And
he, I mean, in the first, once we got through,
once the money started coming in, that's when John would
say things to me. And I'd be like, you're a
dick. You're just a horrible, horrible, horrible man. Now, he
would be right. This is the problem. He would be
right 90% of the time. And if we had an
argument and he saw that he was wrong, he would
actually soften very quickly. Okay, I'm sorry. But – Not
until when he passed, sadly, did I really realize that
that was his true character. He truly wanted to be
loved. Or do you want to be right? Do you
want to be honest or do you want to be
left? No, no. Do you want to be right or
do you want to be rich? That's more the way
he thought. Do you want to be right or do
you want to be rich? And Adam's like, I kind
of want the latter. He was always trying to create
some kind of itch that didn't exist, right? So how
many times Adam was going to tell him, me about
you talking about me on your show or vice versa
call me did you hear what adam said oh yeah
what what happened oh i'm not gonna tell you you
gotta listen to the show no but that we would
we would discuss those moments later and he's like keep
doing that keep doing i'm gonna rile up horowitz keep
doing it that's great that's fantastic good bit He always
thought it was a good bit. He did like to
come up with different stories and a poke to bear.
But he called me one time. I remember I was
in L.A., and – It was like in the middle
of the day, which was odd for him to call
me. He's like, hey, I want to start this rumor.
And I'm like, what rumor, John? He's like, I want
to start a rumor that you own a blimp. I
remember this. Yeah. And I'm like, why? I don't know.
I think it's a good bit. I'm like, okay, I'll
go along with it, but I have no idea why.
It's a meme, you see? It's a meme. The idea
is so powerful that it's contained in its own vessel,
and it inception, people say. We're going to start a
meme. And this guy in the row ahead of me,
Adam, he's got a fish full of nuts. And I'm
saying, this guy just came out of the laboratory. He
touched the thing. Now he's scratched his balls. And now
he's got a fish full of nuts. Who's a savage?
You're in business class. All right. All right. Hold on.
It's enough. You called it. You called for it. John,
tell us your peeve about the... fisting method of eating
snacks on an airplane. I see this on the airplane
and it's very annoying and I think it will result
in fights breaking out. Because it's just so annoying to
watch. The guy takes his bag of peanuts and he
throws a pile of them into his palm of his
hand and then he makes a fist around the nuts.
Around the nuts. And then he shakes his fist to
try to bring a nut to the little hole. And
then he throws a nut in his mouth from his
fist. And then he does it again. He shakes and
throws and shakes and throws. Annoying as hell to watch.
And then he got COVID from a cellar in Seattle.
So the story behind this, I was dating Tina at
the time. and I don't remember. We were in bed
like on some morning and maybe it was evening. And
I'm like, listen to this. This is hilarious. And she's
sitting there. She's like, wow, that's so cool. I said,
hey, watch me turn it into a cool little bit.
And she watched me. I was like, yeah, baby, let
me get some porn music. Yeah, watch me edit this.
I'm like, you know. I'm on. What is going on?
I'm doing my editing program. Like, yeah, what do you
think? I was really just trying to impress her and
it turned into one of the most iconic no agenda
bits ever. What about all of the JCD-isms, like how
to buy a chicken at Costco? The perfect way. Do
you know about this, right? This one I don't know.
Oh, you don't know this? Yeah, it has to do
with the bag. Go ahead, Horowitz. Yeah, so basically what
you do is you go into Costco and you go
over to the chicken thing where they sell the chickens
for $5 per chicken. What you do is you wait
for a minute. You wait until they come out with
the new chickens. Then you investigate. You walk up to
the chickens. You look at the wrappers. And you find
out which chicken breast, the top of the rib, by
the top, where the max breast is. It is touching
the paper on the top of the wrapper. That's the
chicken that you buy. It's true. So you have to
stand there all day and wait for them to bring
out a new thing of chickens? How often do you
bring these chickens out? They bring them out pretty frequently.
They come out pretty regularly. Yeah, they come out regularly.
But it has to touch. It's half of the chicken
as a touch. How long as I wait 80 minutes?
Hey, Jake, do you have chickens on you? on your
ranch? I do. I do. I do have to. Here's
the thing, Bernadie. You don't have to think about this
because of the Emmys and everything. I'm not the residual
texture. We don't get residual texture. I'm Noah Chen. I'm
also not.
the third guy in uber either so okay well listen
you want to talk about emmy money you want to
talk about uber money it's different categories yeah uber money
is a lot more money pal all right fair enough
but here's the thing let me just tell you here
here's here's the thing it's a loss leader okay But
if every store has got a loss leader and you
only buy the loss leader at five stores, then you're
the winner. You understand? It's like cornering Broadway in Monopoly.
Yeah, see? And then you're a winner. So you have
to hack the system, okay? So you don't want to
tell me about your chickens then? I have like whatever,
five or six. We had six chickens. We have five
now. One of the bulldogs broke one and got one.
Out of that one taste. Yeah. I mean, when they
got here, I named them chicken parm nugget. The girls
were like, stop, Dad, don't eat them. But they make
a lot of eggs. So we have too many eggs.
TooManyEggs.com. Yes. By the way, do you all have that
book? I have that book. Did you read that book?
Or get it? Yeah, we got the book. Yeah. That
is the biggest egg book ever. Yeah. It's too many
eggs. And we got all the different types of chickens
and we raised them. What do you got? I don't
even know. But my girls did this and they raised
all different ones. So now we get like, you know,
there's all different color eggs, different sizes. And I got
to tell you something. Have you had a coyote massacre
yet? We have not. We built it like three feet
into the ground, put in a foundation, and we have
to double coop cage. So they're not free range? Well,
we let them go out for a couple of hours
a day. Oh, that's when it will happen. Exactly. Well,
actually, the Hawks get them. You guys were... You're about
the age that you guys did Farmville, I think, and
then you grew up and you actually got your farms?
Yeah. I mean, it's more like conspiracy voting against the
machine and being ready for the revolution. That's like a
1% chance this all goes to like – Heck is
what most people think. Oh, and you think you're ready
just because you got 40 acres and five chickens? Five
chickens. More ready than the most. I got two wells.
I got four power sources. I got a protein source.
I got more ammunition. Do you know how to –
because honestly, I don't. I think about that all the
time, and I'm like, man, I don't know how to
skin a deer or clean anything. No, no, no, no.
Do what I did. You go on YouTube, you find
the video, How to Field Dress a Deer, and then
you use DLP, and you download it so that... I
was going to say, if we're offline, how are we
going to get YouTube? Download it. It's interesting you say
this, Adam, if you're down this rabbit hole. There are
hard drives you can buy for no amount of money
and thumb drives you can buy that have already downloaded
– every possible thing. So I think I should just
start a GrokBot that does this in real time and
then puts it in cold. That's not a bad idea.
Actually, when you do that, can you send it to
me? Because I'm serious. I 100% want to build it
so it has like Wikipedia and whatever else. It's your
own wiki. There are literally thumb drives of this that
you can buy. I don't want to buy it though.
I'm having one of those. Having one of those moments
in the airport where I feel so normal right now
compared to you guys. You know what I'm saying? Absolutely.
You've been in that stall. Andrew, you've been in that
stall for a long time. I don't know. I know.
Time to come out, Jason. The people are knocking. It's
getting a little weird here. Did you go into the
family stall? That's for changing babies. Oh, there is one
right here. It's not bad. Did you ever use that
as a luxury and you're like, you know what? I
can't afford first class, but I'm going to go into
the – I'm going to go into the future large
family bathroom. It's like – Just to let you know,
there's a man on the street right now walking up
to the all-gender toilet. I can hear the echo. Yeah.
Hey, Jason, I have a question, just a serious question,
because I've noticed that I know you're liberal and you
were very conservative. What did you say? I'm on individual
freedoms. Oh, he's fiscally conservative. I'm liberal. Yes. I mean,
I go through each issue individually. I can't be in
a group. I do each issue individually. But I have
noticed a change with you since you've gone to Texas.
Oh, yeah. This isn't a gag or a joke. I'm
serious because similar happened with me, and I'm curious, is
it – you're waking up more of to the nonsense
and or is it that you are surrounded by the
type of people that you're you're surrounded by because if
you when you lived in california you're surrounded you're more
in that bubble now you're in texas you're in a
different kind of bubble so what do you think the
effect is on you okay so i think i look
at the bookends of my life, like a third of
the time, first 30 years in New York, 20 years
in California, now back to Texas. Texas and- What do
you mean back to- were you from there originally? No,
no. But I would say Texas today and Brooklyn in
the 70s and 80s, Yeah, very similar, you know, and
the California stuff was like California when I got there
was like very innovative and interesting. And then this woke
bullshit kind of like became acute. And I was like,
yeah, this is not for me. I will say like.
In New York, in California, I owned a gun, but
I couldn't carry a gun kind of thing. And I
appreciate... I would say probably I've gotten dragged into these
discussions, which I never had to have as a tech
guy or a media guy. You weren't expected to comment
on these things, and now I comment on them, and
then people are a little bit surprised when I'm like,
listen, I'm a law and order guy. Well, guess what?
I wasn't going to go to college. I was going
into the New York police. I took the NYPD test
with my brother. He went in. I got accepted to
Fordham at the last minute and went there at night.
Right. was going to be a cop. What year was
that? 1988. 89. Where did you grow up? Bay Ridge,
Brooklyn. I'm a Long Island boy. Where in Long Island?
Out in Colmack. That's where I spent most of my
day. Yeah, his last show, I was telling Adam, I
was in the Coast Guard at Jones Beach. Oh, that's
right. Great. I used to – Save the OBI, man.
Save the OBI, boys. Yeah. Yeah, so you're – I
would consider you then more like a 90s Democrat. I
mean, yeah, if you told me, like, you know, to
pick the person you align with most, it probably would
have been, like – Clinton or something, balance the budget.
If you want to have gay marriage, I'm not super
opposed to live and let live. You do what you
wouldn't do on your ranch. I do what I want
to do, and we don't need to talk about it
kind of situation. It's kind of how you live and
let live in Brooklyn, in Texas, what you do on
your ranch, your business, what I do on my ranch.
If the cattle come over the fence, you bring them
back and you're going to do it. You fix the
fence together. I kind of like that aesthetic. But in
California, it really went kind of wild just watching the
number of homeless people, which were really just junkies. Watching
that, you're going to get kind of red-pilled. I watched
all my friends get red-pilled by that, the taxes, and
then just the outward contempt and hate of – and
anybody who owned a business. And I was like, we're
in California. This was like the place where you started
the business, Silicon Valley. And they're like, oh, you're a
venture capitalist. You invest in business. Oh, you start businesses?
F you. Like, you're the problem. And you're like, what
are you talking about? We employ 90% of the people
here. Do you remember, Jason? It was weird. Do you
remember when – There was a moment, actually, I think
before I went out to San Francisco to start Pod
Show, When all the venture capital guys, they were like
passing around Ayn Rand books and they were all super.
No, not libertarian. They were, you know, they were more
like hunting and, oh, we do this. We're going to
do that. And then Obama came into office and it
was probably Kleiner. What's his name? John Doerr. John Doerr.
It was like the TED conference in John Doerr. That
whole constituent got woke, woke, woke. They crammed – oh,
man. And their wives were ranching llamas and alpacas and
knitting alpaca wool. And then the one guy – Ed
Kleiner was Ray Lane who came from Oracle, and he
was hardcore Republican. And they gave him like an office
on the other side of the building. Like, go sit
over there. I mean, don't those guys just go with
the wind wherever it's going? You know, this is when
I was – when you played that clip earlier, I
say business people play the game on the field when
– and the ultimate weather vane to see this manifested
is Mark Zuckerberg. Like – He was the first guy
like, OK, we got to ban Trump. Yeah, Trump's going
to tweet something again. It's going to be another January
6th. We got to give him a ban. And, you
know, we got to donate to this cause, that cause,
whatever. And then, oh. And cut to him water skiing
with the American flag. Yeah, and his PR people are
like, it would be great if like Dana White was
on your board and you were doing MMA. and you
had an American flag. So then he's like, okay, yeah,
that's what I need to do to not be pulled
in front of Congress. Wait a minute. You really think
so? You really think that that's all PR? I know
so. I know so. Really? He doesn't... All crafted. Really?
I mean, how do you explain it? I mean, which
one's the real one? Is he based or did he
become a based, like... MAGA guy in three years? You
don't have to be to be base, you don't have
to be MAGA. Two years later, you're at the White
House, right? It's a game on the field. It doesn't
have to be MAGA. Jason, was it you that was
talking about Andreessen? Was that you this week? Last week
on All In, was that somebody talking about this? Two
weeks ago, I think. Two weeks ago, yeah. And there
was this, yeah. So, you know, the idea that he
does a flip-flop every four to eight years, right? I
mean, I think the whole notion of what is going
on, the reality of now get closer to them, get
closer to that. And then the business that will spur
off it. And then whether it's just politics. Yeah, of
course. But I think that's the new politics. I think
it was just shocking for people, Andrew, that the tech
industry would embrace Trump so quickly. And it was kind
of like, if you're going to put Kamala Ding Dong
into office, and we're not invited to Kamala Ding Dong.
I mean, she was so dumb. It was like, and
there's no primary. People were looking at that, and they're
like, okay, this is idiotic. they no kings yeah and
then it's like ah and this guy wants to invite
you to the white house wants to hear uh wants
to bring m&a back people don't even think about like
what impact putting lena khan in this 30 year old
who was like i can predict which m&a deals are
going to result in less competition in the future it's
like okay precog like this is This is like some
weird concept to just adjudicate the law, balls and strikes.
is what the tech industry wanted. And Trump's like, yeah,
absolutely. You guys want to buy companies and merge? That
sounds great to me. Awesome. Yeah, let's go. Let's win.
Let's do deals. We got to do deals. Deals. And
I got to tell you, for my business, the amount
of M&A activity going on now, mergers and acquisitions, it's
crazy. A hundred acts during the Biden era. It's just,
you know, it's for for for. Horowitz, where do you
stand? You seem more liberal. Why do people say that,
by the way? I'm kind of right in the middle
of the road. I am not liberal. I'm moderate. I
would consider moderate, which I guess most people would say
that, oh, that's liberal. But no, I'm totally, well, free
enterprise, no question about that. Regulation to a degree, as
long as, you know, because if you don't allow it
in my industry... regulation, it just is going to go
haywire. I've seen it. I've been doing this 40 years.
In terms of the tech industry, I have no problem.
Innovate, create, merge. As long as there's a betterment of
it after the fact, fine. If it's not, it crashes
and burns. That's fine, too. There needs to be some
regulation on everything within reason, but that's the point. It
always ends up going way too far, way beyond. Yeah.
I mean, and on the – when you send your
kids to school in California and they start asking them
like, what's your gender? You're like – they're like, I'm
six. And they're like, no, no, your gender. And they're
like – I'm six years old and I'm a girl.
And they're like, are you sure? And it's like, guys,
I didn't send them to the school to make a
political statement, like just some history, some math. Can they
have recess? They're like, yeah, well, they can't play tag
anymore because somebody has to lose in tag. I'm like.
Like life? Like when the tiger chases you and catches
you? Like that's the whole point of tag is to
learn how to survive. Since we seem to have some
form of very queer roundtable, I'm going to ask some
questions. No, I meant queer. No, no, queer. You're all
getting canceled. I'm no longer near the bathroom system, be
clear. Exactly. All right. So we look at France right
now. We look at Italy. We look at Belgium. There's
chaos. And my assessment is that this is because they've
lost their... national identity, love of country. And I've been
talking to Tina about this a lot. Do we still
have that? Can we bring that back in America? Should
we bring it back? Where are we headed? And the
room fell silent. I have a lot of thought. I
don't want to monopolize, but go ahead, Bernie. No, no,
go ahead. I mean – I wasn't – 20 years
ago – I wasn't listening. Yeah, no, 20 – He's
sorry. Sorry. The gummy just hit. There's your title. There's
a potential title for the show. The gummy just hit.
Yeah. 20 years ago, I heard Rupert Murdoch talk about
unmitigated immigration to these countries. And I was talking to
Toby from... Shopify last night at a party. Name drop.
Hey, did you hear that, Adam? Oh, yes. Oh, you're
so cute. Whatever. Whatever. He's an incredible entrepreneur. He's like
the great – he's the Elon Musk of Canada, right?
Like he's got this incredible company, yada, yada. And like
they – he told me that like the immigration was
kind of – not very thoughtful. And they got 35
million people as the denominator. I think they brought in
three or four million people in the last 10 years.
It's not sustainable. And really, immigration should be a competition
to get into – the great countries of the world.
But that's not my question. My question is... Well, that's
why these cities are burning. But the French... Give us
a question again, Adam. What's the question again? It's not
just... I see all the kids being interviewed by Nick
Shirley and all these different people. The question is have
we lost the love Have we lost the idea that
America is great? Yeah, and that's I think what Jason
was getting at. It's from the immigration. They're coming here
not to assimilate. They're coming here for the advantages and
things that we provide.
I do them, but they're not coming here for any
love of the country. They're coming here wanting us to
bend to them. Jason, I think, and correct me if
I'm wrong, it's all about immigration and having people come
here, but doing it legally and for us bringing in
the people that benefit the country and have love of
the country. A hundred percent correct. You can't have 10
percent of the country hate the country and be only
there because of the services there are better than the
services at their country. That's kind of what happened to
Europe is they had this massive migration of people who
– have no connection to French culture, no connection to
Italian culture. They're there because they want some free services.
They want a better job. Okay, fair enough. But if
you let too many of those people in, then it
tips over. I think the United States, if you look
at the average Mexican who – came to the United
States to work, they assimilated very nicely. They were very
happy to be here. They became Americans within one generation,
one and a half generations. If you look at some
of the other people who've integrated, and they make their
own community, and then they never integrate – That's the
challenge. But I think America could rebound. Yes, I think
there are some people who believe in socialism right now.
There's a generation that believes socialism. That doesn't believe in
the American dream, and the reason they don't believe in
the American dream is the three things I talk about
all the time. They can't afford a home. The college
education doesn't make sense. You spend $100,000, $200,000, $300,000, but
you get a job for $50,000 or you can't get
a job. And then obviously healthcare, and people are like,
I'm just scared to get sick because – I'm going
to go bankrupt. Yeah, but there's so many alternatives that
people aren't told about, like crowd health. There's all kinds
of alternatives to that that you actually can afford it.
And also everything you're talking about, Jason, is socialism, and
that doesn't seem to be working out very well for
France. It doesn't, and if you – have too many
people run to the socialism side, then it kind of
mutes the capitalism side and you have less jobs. What
you have to look at is the actual economic situation
in the United States. We have the lowest unemployment of
our lifetimes for the people on the podcast who are
50 and above, which I think is all of us.
And so the housing issue is the one that really
opened my eyes. When I lived in New York, They
consistently built some housing, high rises, et cetera. So it
wasn't super painful. It came up once in a while.
Then I moved to California, and it was the overwhelming
discussion for my 20 years in California was housing is
out of control. Housing is out of control. These limousine
liberals would – basically stop any development of anything. If
you lived in Brentwood or Pacific Palisades, any of these
places, you wanted to build a You know, four townhomes
on a former lot with one home, they would fight
you like they were fighting against the Nazi invasion, right?
Like these liberals would just fight any new inventory. So
the housing prices went crazy and everybody was suffering. Then
I moved to Texas and they're like, here in Austin,
we've had housing prices go down four years in a
row. everybody's chill. Nobody talks about the price of homes.
If you can't own a home, that breaks the American
dream. If you feel that acute pressure, can't find a
job, can't find a home. scared of healthcare, then you
look for another solution, and obviously the solution is free
shit from the government. Problem with that is you have
to charge 60% taxes like Denmark does, or 55% like
France. And once you do that, then the entrepreneur's like,
why am I going to work if I'm giving 60
cents on the dollar? I'm going to go find a
place where I can't do that. But Adam, can I
ask you something, Adam? Is the question really about the
love of the country, or is it understanding of what
the country is, right? We have people come to the
country, they don't understand what it is, what it's all
about, what we've built up, what we've come from, and
it's not, you can't have the love until you have
the understanding of what it is, and I think that's
what's really... lost in a lot of this. It's become
a country that we have the haves and then everybody
else is getting just on for the ride. Well, good
question, and I want to welcome to the chicken coop
We have a full set. Please say hello to Rob
Duser, Dusifer, and Matt Long, who have now joined us.
Gentlemen. Oh, we got the whole gang is here. Wow.
It's a podcast orgy. Everybody's here. In the morning. In
the morning. I keep driving into dips, though, so I
might be lost every now and then. Matt, you there?
Yes, sir, I am in the morning. So happy to
join you. So we're talking about the. I was told
we had to be driving in our trucks while we
were doing this. I'm not driving. I'm sitting still. You
miss. Or near a public bathroom. Somewhere near a public
bathroom. Yeah. So we got J. Cal Brunetti. J. Cal
is in the bedroom. Brunetti is in. in the truck
horowitz is in the airport deucifer is driving matt long
where are you i'm sitting in my office all right
so we're talking about storage container no not not right
now well matt you're actually you're actually the guy to
weigh in on this we're just since this is a
mess anyway uh on this show we're just talking about
stuff uh Love of country, love of America, clearly France,
UK. Well, the UK actually probably still has a hardcore
love of their country, but that's failing. Can we continue
to be Americans the way in America that we grew
up in? J. Cal says it's all related to housing.
How about just love of country, Matt? What do you
see? You are Mr. America, in my opinion. Well, I
don't see love of country going away. I see it
maybe... shrinking to you know less people that feel that
way but uh the love of country that i see
and the love of the state of texas is uh
overwhelming and uh i think the rest of this is
just noise do you sound like by the way he
sounds like america I was waiting for J. Cow to
do an imitation of his voice. Yeah, yeah. Yes, sir.
It's big Texas. I wish I was in Dixie. Hooray,
hooray. I was in Dixie. Ducifer. Ducifer. Let's talk about
the importance of the media at this point, since you
work in arguably one of the most influential alternative media
outfits with Alex Jones. Mainstream media doesn't matter. Definitely not
as much. And I could see the whole with no
agenda where it's going in the future. It's going to
change because are people really watching the media anymore? I
think the only people watching it now are are boomers
older than than you, Harry. They're they're stuck to it.
Those old people. They're that old. People my age, I
don't think, really watch the media anymore. I can't remember
the last time I sat down and watched the nightly
news or anything like that. The only time I've watched
the media is trying to put clips together when I'm
hosting a show. Well, this is interesting. So the show
is basically a boomer itself. Well, I've told you that
that's why I'm so angry when I get on the
show when I'm putting together clips because I'm then watching
the news for the first time and watching this stuff
to try to get clips. And it just riles me
up and I realize this is why I don't watch
the news and why I love listening to the shows
because you distilled it down. You were the condom for
me. Right. And you do have to analyze it, though.
You have to analyze what's being said. Out in the
place because so a lot of what what is the
news doing now? It's getting quotes from people. And that's
mostly what we're analyzing. We're not analyzing what the broadcaster
is saying as much anymore. It's what is Trump saying?
What is Musk saying? What are all the and I
was actually listening to the show Thursday show. With with
with you and Burnetti and you are deep into AI.
And at one point you go, we got to stop
talking about AI because people are going to get bored.
That's kind of where the news is just so full
of itself and what they're pushing, which is blatant propaganda.
People are tired of it. So they're not they're like
to they just tune out to it. And I think
more – even beyond tired of it for the reason
that they're starting to be able to – See it
for what it is. And because we have access to
things like X and social media, that gives it gives
us a lot of different perspectives and not just what
legacy media always told us. They're able to really start
to see and read between the lines. But wouldn't you
say that the the agenda for all talking points, the
way I see it is. It's the clips. So something
will be put out on X. It's a clip of
someone saying something odd or stupid or great doing this.
It still sets the agenda for the for the general
message, doesn't it? I think it's less driven and it's
more powered by the citizens, for lack of a better
word, the audience as opposed to the guy in the
control room. No, it's not. It's driven by algorithms. No
way. Algorithms. Algorithms, for sure. Yeah. I mean, look at
my business, the financial business. For years, it's been people
talking about their books. You know about this. I mean,
they come on the show. What are they talking about?
They're lying through their teeth about owning a stock or
not. If the stock is down for some miracle, they
sold it last week. If it's up, they bought it
last week. This is the same thing. I think people
have realized that this is not... This is not groundbreaking
what I'm about to say here. But we went from
news and we went straight to opinion. And then realized
that you say whatever you want, you shape the audience,
you shape the psyche and make money from it. Well,
there's gambling going on there. This is very upsetting. Update,
update, update. Here's the thing. This is probably why No
Agenda carved an interesting niche for itself and resonated with
a lot of people is for our generation, we're the
last generation, the Gen Xers who had appointment plans. And
a strategy for like consuming the news, you would listen
to the Sunday shows, you would read the newspaper in
the morning when you went to work, you had the
newspaper on the train, whatever it was, you watch the
nightly news, you had a habit. And, you know, the
majority of the country had a news consumption habit. And
then when these algorithms come out now, it's OK, here's
a bunch of videos. And they've been clipped to all
heck. They're now being created and constructed in order to
go viral. So the media has become fictional producers of
clips. So they're working backwards from clips, just like the
– Johnny Carson was an appointment for people. Then now
these nighttime shows are just clip machines. They're like, I'm
going to make a clip that goes viral. Yeah, it's
an appointment. Viewing is dead. Dead. And Richard, like everyone
would sit down at 6 p.m. to watch the nightly
news, the local and then the national news. And the
algorithm is so powerful that. You know, whatever you click
on... 1.5 times in whatever platform you're using, it's like,
okay, let's give you the next thing down that rabbit
hole. Next thing. It's like, okay, now I'm listening to
Alex Jones, and I want to know a genital Alex
Jones, and now I've got the tinfoil hat on. It
literally just spirals you to the end state, whatever the
end state is. If the end state is Nick Fuentes
and anti-Semitism, you start with like, oh, here's a reasonable
criticism of the state of Israel and Netanyahu and you
will wind up at Nick Fuentes. You're like, oh, wow,
maybe there was something amiss on 9-11 or maybe there
was some kind of conspiracy with COVID. And all of
a sudden you're on Alex Jones. You just immediately go
to the end state because that increases listening. The only
thing YouTube or any of the algorithms care about is
did we extend the session time? That's literally what they're
designed for. How do we extend this session to... And
then people get psychosis and their brains melt and they're
doom scrolling all night. And that's why you need to
accept Jesus, Dana. Amen. Amen, brother. There it is. This
kind of reminds me of the – did you see
the guy on X a couple weeks ago who was
complaining about X giving him all of the half-naked girls
and girls in bikinis? Yeah, and he was like, bro.
what did you like he was getting in trouble from
his wife and he's like I don't need to see
this stuff I don't want to see this stuff and
Elon came along and was basically like dude it goes
off of what you're looking at the guy's like oh
he just cell phoned all I'm seeing is just crazy
Adam I'm just seeing all these men with their shirts
off on my algo Adam was doing that in the
group chat he's like I don't know why I'm seeing
so many buff men. I don't think so, but okay.
Why do you see so many buff men in your
feed? They're very handsome men. I never look at a
man's butt, but I have to say, this man's incredible.
Jason, I think you're still on to tequila, man. He's
unbelievable. But you know... Most of us have young kids,
except Matt, I think. We have kids. And, you know,
kids just want to belong to something. And that is
what I see as the biggest problem is what –
and the algos play into this – It's like, you
know, if you want, you're weird, you're awkward, and we
all were when we were teenagers, and you want to
belong somewhere, and whatever group is going to be nice
to you, That's where this comes into play. And that
was the hijack of our children was the LGBTQQIAP plus,
you know, the socialism. They just want to belong. You
know, and I obviously I think there's an alternative, which,
yes, Jason is Jesus. Yeah. And we're seeing more. Matt
could probably talk about this because you track this stuff,
Matt. And Matt is way into politics here in Texas.
So who do you see showing up and where do
they want to belong? You know, I think you said
kids want to belong. Adults want to belong, too. I
don't think that changes. I think that's a desire that
just goes through our life. And so that's kind of
where I stand on that. All of us want to
be a part of something. I don't think any of
us want to just stand alone on the rock and,
you know, shout at the world. So, yeah, I'm always
looking for people to go along with me. I don't
want to be alone. I'll tell you something here. I've
got a comment from the Jew in the group. Let's
talk about this because I do have an opinion on
this. It's very rarely heard from Horowitz, okay? All right,
here we go. Yeah, I do think that the destruction
of organized religion, which I believe was the greatest invention
of all time to corral the masses, and I'm not
saying that in a negative way, I'm truly saying it
in a positive manner, but the lack of religion and
the family unit religion that has pretty much disappeared or
at least has degraded over the years is a big
reason for the fact that people are longing to belong
to something because they don't have it. If they were
taught about this from the beginning and they had, whether
it's Jesus or whether it's someone.
else or somebody or whatever it may be that is
a good direction for the religion, for the base of
what you do every day and how you believe in
the basis of all the good that happens in life.
I think a lot of this stuff wouldn't be happening
as much. And I think Truly, sorry for all of
you that have investments in social media. Social media is
not doing any favors for this whole thing. No, definitely
not. Definitely not. And the common denominator across Europe is,
with the exception of the UK actually with the Church
of England is that all the churches are pretty much
they've been burned down they've been turned into WeWork Airbnb
regular offices it's completely gone in Europe I know from
first hand experience it's just gone it's not there anymore
so that is a take I got to believe There
seems to be a lot of moss popping up. Well,
and this is a problem. Absolutely. Because, oh, well, here's
something I can believe in. Look, everyone's peaceful and calm,
and maybe I'll go hang out with these people. Until
they're not. Well, yes, yes. Matt? Well, I was just
thinking the other day, someone between leaving the studio, leaving
my shipping container and letting the next crew in, I
said something to the next person. I said, man, I'm
all jacked up today. I'm all jacked up. And we'd
had a local silliness happen that had gotten me all
fired up. And this person... And this friend looked at
me and said, well, you need to get off the
social media. And I have not been on social media
ever since I got banned from fake book in 2020
for speaking truth about the COVID. And then I got
myself in the X trap for a while. And I'm
telling you, it burned. I earned my time like a
vampire, and it took me a while to figure that
out, but it sucked the time out of my life,
all of it. So, no, I don't do any social
media anymore, and that's not what gets me jacked up.
It's what happens in the real world that gets me
jacked up. You hear that, Brunetti? You're on X way
too much. I was just about to say, yeah. Is
this why you're always yelling at me to get off
of X? Yes. You're such a productive man. You could
be doing so much good for the world. All right.
You've said this to me. Jason said this to me
about that I have all the time on my hands.
I need to find – let's workshop this. What is
it that I'm supposed to be doing? Oh, I got
it. Oh, I got it. I got it. Oh, no,
no. What is it? Podcast. The movie. Did you see
the, uh, did you see it? I got this whole
thing designed already. Oh no, I got this whole thing
designed. Yeah, I got the poster board and stuff. I
got the whole thing all over. We're doing this. It's
kind of, it's kind of like Lego the movie about
podcasters, you know? So, so from the, from the producer
of the social network comes podcast, the movie. Wow. Congratulations.
You figured it out. to have the lowest grossing movie
of all time. In the world, we're fine. What would
have the lowest ticket sales possible? It's literally the producers.
How can we lose $10 million producing a movie to
get a tax credit? Everybody keeps coming at me about
how you got to go back, you got to bet,
you got to, you know, we need movies like you
or something. It's a different business This is a different
time. It's not going to happen. Curry doing your movie
and your documentary, that's easy. That'll be one and done,
and we'll get it done. I'm just like – you
keep saying I need to be more productive. How? What?
I'm a steward of my land here, and maybe I
figure out a way to – I don't know, generate
something here. I've got to turn it into a wildlife
preserve. Well, no, no, but I'm not saying you need
to be productive for the world. I'm just a little
concerned because my timeline, and I only have X, I
don't have any other social media, my timeline is literally
filled with you and J-Cal. That's all that it is.
There's nothing else. I'm a venture capitalist. It's my job
to be on Twitter. Yeah. And by the way... I'm
a Rumble Rouser. It's my job. I have nothing else
that comes across my Twitter feed any longer either, besides
either J. Cal giving away money, which I want in
on, by the way, or Bernetti doing something on GrokBot,
which is like revolutionary. Mm hmm. Hey, did you figure
out? Hey, we have Jason on. We can ask him
since he was like number three in Uber. Uber works
with GrokBot, but Lyft doesn't. Why is that, Jason? I
think the bot's a really good discussion because we showed
that robot before, the unit tree. These bots are getting
highly capable. And so anybody who has a service that
you could shop around and get a better deal on
– is incredibly threatened. So if you own a bank,
the banks this past week were like, oh my God,
this is so unsafe, these bots. If you use these
bots, they're going to drain your bank account. It's like,
okay, no, no, no. It's read-only mode. It's just reading
through it, looking for what you're subscribed to. It's read-only
mode. You're not giving it access to transfer money. It's
all through plaids. So it's all three service. It's super
safe to just say like, hey, unsubscribe me and look
at my email for my my subscriptions. Cross reference. It
makes it super easy for customers to transfer. The next
step is it says, hey, by the way, you're using
bank a there's a neo bank, these new banks like
new bank, Mercury, whatever. And you would be saving based
on your last 10 years with whatever bank, legacy bank,
you were spending $300 a year on their fees and
services. That's $3,000. If you use this bank, you would
have actually made $3,000. Would you like me to switch
you in – You'd be like, yeah. And it's like,
okay, it's switching. And now you go to Amazon and
you say to Amazon, I told my Amazon bot, if
you can find me a deal, that's 20% better. Hold
on, hold on. You have a bot that still can
connect to Amazon? Yeah. It will connect. You can put
it in the cart. And puts it in the cart,
and it says you want to send it to the
ranch or the ski house. Do you want to put
it on personal guard? I thought it was the beach
house. No, no, no. I never send it to the
beach house. I never send it to the beach house.
I send it to the estate manager who lives next
to the beach house. And then do you want it
at the FBO for the plane? And do you want
it to put on the plane? Anyway. Anyway, there's like
six different stories. I'm just trying to simplify for the
storytelling. Anyway, I tell it, if you can find this
watch – At one of my trusted dealers, I just
told him, if you can find something for 20% less,
give me the option or whatever. Just make sure I'm
not getting ripped off. I don't mind Amazon charging me
10% more for the convenience and everything in one place.
But I don't want to get price gouged. And it
did this for me. Where I wanted this Anchor device
and it's like, by the way, if you're a first-time
buyer on Anchor, they give you 20% off and this
is a $400 device. So that would be $80 and
their shipping is the same. And I was like, sure,
buy it there. You have my credit card, whatever. Tease
it all up. I buy it direct from them. And
it's like, yeah, you're a first-time buyer. I'm like, wait
a second. Can I be a first-time buyer all the
time? So – Uber is a technology company. They understand
if they make the API available, But you still have
to have your credentials. So if you have your credentials
and you go to Uber, they have the best network.
They have the most liquidity, which is the shortest wait
times. People are always going to use Uber. People are
always going to use DoorDash. Why? They have the most
liquidity. DoorDash has the most restaurants. Uber has the most
drivers. They're not going to lose their – But Jason,
when I was logging in, aren't I going in essentially
in my own instance through the GrokBot to log in,
not through the API? They can go through the API
or they can go through what's called a virtual machine,
which is like here's your little popped up – essentially
here's your little machine that you log into. They know.
at Amazon, they're sophisticated enough to know that's the IP
addresses and that's the browser signature of a GrokBot. The
only way to get around that is to have your
GrokBot, your Claude code, whatever, Use your desktop so it
really looks like you. And that's what we'll eventually get
to. Adam's talked about it a lot. I've talked about
it a lot. You'll have a local model. Your agent
will be running on your local computer when your local
computer gets to 128 to 256 gigs of RAM. And
then it's game over for everybody because you'll have KI
sovereignty. Can't you do that now, though, with GrokBot or
these models when you give them screen access? Yes, you
can. They don't all support it yet because it's too
dangerous. There's a lot of liability issues. GrokBot can control
my computer. Like my computer. Not the virtual computer, but
my actual computer. Is that Rob Dew getting in his
car? Jesus. Somebody's getting out of the car. We lost
Matt Long and Rob. No, no, Matt's still here. Well,
no, Matt actually is a new Muse guy, I think.
Aren't you, Matt? yes i am and i love it
and it has saved me a tremendous amount of time
uh prepared a speech for me that i have to
deliver in a couple of weeks and uh i've just
had to gone through it where are you giving speech
matt um at the bandera veterans uh yeah not the
rodeo uh on the veterans parade in bandera and I
have the keynote speech on the courthouse lawn, and then
I'll be the – whoever rides in the front trailer
in the parade, whatever that is. What wars did they
– these are like old vets? All wars. All wars?
All wars? Yeah, all vets. What's the topic of your
speech? Vets or animal doctors? Animal doctors or – Veterans.
Veterans. So what's the topic, Matt? What are you going
to deliver in your keynote to these vets? The keynote
is from Ben Franklin, and I am getting horrible stories.
echo. The keynote is from Ben Franklin, and it's his
look at how he dealt with veterans and the fighters
and how he raised money, and even though he was
a Quaker and didn't believe in bearing arms, what he
did for those who did bear arms, and that was
quite a bit. Welcome, everybody, today to our capital. My
name is He is Matt Long, and I would like
to let you know that Benjamin Franklin said, well done
is better than well said. But today I'm going to
try to achieve both. Now, dost thou love life? Then
do not squander your time. Therefore, that is the stuff
that life is made of. America. Hot not your talents.
They for use were made. Oh, we're totally off the
rails now. I know that Ben Franklin people get really
weird. You got merch? You got Ben Franklin? revival merch
or anything? Bro, have you seen this dude's photo? He
looks exactly like Ben Franklin. It's uncanny. I do have
a bobblehead that was custom made for me by my
wife, so I have my own bobblehead. Was it just
a Ben Franklin bobblehead that she gave you and said
she had made for you? Oh yeah, but she's my
pick. In fact, when they were working on it, she
had to remove the tattoo on my ring finger because
she didn't want it showing up on the bobblehead. How
do you get your microphone to actually broadcast at half
speed? Are you hearing him? It's a joke. Well, here's
what happens. Great question. I have an AI. So when
I speak regular speed, it will slow down. Hey, Matt,
Matt, Matt. Tell us more about Muse. What did it
write? What did it do for you that you couldn't
have done? It did a lot of searches that would
have taken me a long time. I put in –
I'm trying to think of an example. But I was
looking for a faucet for one of our group homes
for folks with disabilities. And – I put in all
the requirements and Muse came up with some good options.
All right. This is a great question, Bernadette. I had
a leak in my outdoor sink by my smoker, and
I went under the sink. I took the picture. I
gave it to Muse. Right then, bang, bang, bang. Oh,
my God. Roughly. That was just so great. I guess
we know who everybody's going. This is the great thing,
Matt. You never have to worry about a Halloween outfit.
You know you're going as Ben Franklin. It's just defaulted.
I can tell you what, though. If it ever comes
to where we've got to live off the land, well,
they're out by you, so you're lucky there. You don't
have to worry about it. Abdou and Matt that will
come out and take him. I'm taking Matt as my,
like, yeah, he'll be my, he'll start the new legal
democracy system over at the J Ranch. Hey, was something
like that happening there? We have a state of Jefferson
where I live. Say who? Nothing like that here. Do
you know about the state of Jefferson? Separate from the
entire union. Hold on. Hold on. Wait, what is going
on? Hold on. Deucifer is coming in. Yeah, Texas has
talked about seceding several times. Is he in a room
with you? No, no. He's still in the truck. Go
ahead. On a CB? I'm in the office. I'm on
AirPods. Does it not sound good? No. No. Yeah, incredibly
professional, Brad. Incredibly professional. It's worse than me. I mean,
listen, I got the first text. I'm on speakerphone. Is
that okay? Jason, I don't understand how... You can be
so quiet during the all-in pod, but you literally, it's
like you just... You're the moderator here. Here, I'm a
guest. This is the all-done pod. The thing is, Jason's
a lot smarter than all of us, but he's not
as smart as all those other guys. Oh, that's what
it is. Okay. Yeah, you're right. That's why he said
this is the all-in pod for losers. He's the smartest
guy in the room here. Hey, speaking of smart... Wait,
wait, wait, wait. Speaking of smartest guy in the room
and X, I see Gibney is coming after you. Who?
Alex Gibney, the guy who directed Musk, the documentary that
flopped. He's the failed documentarian. He's just bitter like Karen
Swisher is. The interesting thing is this Nathan Fielder, who
is a true talent. I think you would agree, Burnetti.
And I think this film is the top three documentary
of all time. I'll ask Burnetti because he's incredible. expert
here but for me it's like grizzly man hoop dreams
and and you can see everything those are my top
three docs of all time but gibney was an accomplished
documentary filmmaker who now made a half million dollars of
his documentary let me let me let Let me finish.
You're 100% right. He got TDS and EDS, and unfortunately,
it's now hurting him because he did the Enron move.
He's the smartest guys in the room, which I thought
was really good. That was a good move. Great one.
Great. That was a great one. Exceptional. And then he
did a couple others. But with this one, it was
four hours to begin with. It clearly was a total
hit piece. And now he just seems a bit deranged
and is going kind of nuts on – Twitter and
it was just pulled out of the theaters. It only
made a half a million dollars. And he's kind of
seems to be losing the shit a little bit. Well,
this is what I'm talking about, because you guys are
interacting with him on X. You're actually platforming him with
a movie that sucks. Yeah, but you have 40,000 followers.
So? Well, that's nothing. It's true. You're no J-Cal. I
posted a picture, a live picture of me in the
airport next to the all-gender bathroom on Exodus now, by
the way. Just seriously. So you want to take a
look at that? Oh, my goodness. We got steers and
queers and then no gender bathrooms. I can't make it
up. Dude, more horns. Horowitz, man, you got to lay
off the GLP-1, man. You got O-Face. This is not
good. That's not what's happening. I'm working out five days
a week, my friend. Hey, are you in L.A.? Don't
shame shade me. Wait, and J.Cow, where are you? I'm
in Hill Country at the ranch. I thought for what
you said, where were you hanging out with Toby? It's
F1 weekend in Austin. So he came for F1. I
thought you were out here. I was going to say,
we should all get together up here on the ranch.
Is the race today? The races today, yeah. I got
invited by like 17 people, but man, it is a
S show getting in. Oh, how many people did you
get invited by, Adam? I love that. I got invited
by like 17 people. You know, the thing with Formula
One, it's always on a Sunday, and every year –
The Dutch helicopter detachment from Fort Hood always invites me
to fly with them in the Chinooks to do the
flyover, and I've never been able to do it. The
Chinooks. The Chinooks. The Chinooks, man. Never been able to
do it. Helicopter. Only way to go to F1. No,
no, Chinook is the one with the two rotors. Yes.
Which famously – The Pan Am building had the ability
to land these in the 50s and 60s into the
70s, and you could get a ride. You'd go to
the Pan Am club. Then you – if you were
for business class or whatever, first class, then you'd go
to the roof of the Pan America building, and they
would take you to JFK in a Chinook. And then
one time – you probably know about this aviation disaster.
It landed, and the strut broke. It flips over. It
kills three people waiting to get on the thing. And
it's like, why are these people – On the roof.
They should be downstairs until all clear is given. Anyway,
and then a blade goes off the building and kills
somebody in the street. After that, no more helicopters in
Manhattan. Game over. You can do it at like three
– heliports, right, Adam, on the side of the rivers?
But you can't land on buildings. This is going to
happen with the eVTOLs, too. There's going to be so
many people dying in these things. We're all jacked up
about it. We'll go to the airports. You've got to
break it down. eVTOLs, you mean the flying cars? eVTOL,
vertical takeoff and landing. Look up Joby, look up Archer,
and essentially like your quadcopter or your drone. Imagine that
human size. You can fit two people, four people, six
people basically. Yeah. And it has like eight rotors. Adam's
getting one that's a tricycle. Actually, they're going to be
– they'll be much safer than helicopters. Oh, please. If
you lose a rotor or two. Bull crap. Why do
we need that? Bull crap. Why do we need that?
Don't we have the Tesla car, the flying car? What
are you talking about? That flies for 12 seconds. It'll
add a second every year, but it's not going to
take you from Manhattan to JFK. No. But these are
becoming the hopping car. It's the hopping car. It's exactly
what it is. It's a preview of where we'll be
in 20 years. Look up the definition of flying and
hop. Yeah, I heard this last week. But anyway, I
think here's the thing about getting in. Are you the
guy on – you are on X. You're the guy
hassling me on X about the definition of flying and
hop. Probably so. Yeah. My GrokBop blocked Matt Long a
long time ago. Way too much homoerotic replies. Dude. It
has a homoerotic score. And Matt was over 82%. Jason,
the only person talking about gay stuff is you. I
just want to point that out. I know. I am
by the old generation. All gender bathroom. All gender bathroom.
I'm not the guy in stall 14. Anyway. We're probably
hosting from stall 14. He who smells it is who
dealt it. So that's pretty easy. We know where that's
coming from. By the way. Did Ben Franklin say that
actually? Did Ben Franklin say that? Yeah, I think he
did. He did write a whole story up on farting
and actually had this idea that we might be able
to change the smell of our farts with the proper
eating. And he used the – I don't know if
this is a joke now. No, no. It's a real
turn. I didn't know Ben Franklin was into flatulence. Continue.
You really know a lot about Ben Franklin. Franklin if
this is real. Oh, yeah. This is absolutely real. So
anyway, he took the idea that when you eat asparagus
and your pee smells like asparagus, he figured there ought
to be something we can eat that would do the
same thing for our poop. He never did find anything.
But boo. There you go. Why is I working on
this? This asparagus thing, you guys know the stats on
the asparagus thing, right? Yes. Like some of the people
can't smell it and don't smell it. I have a
friend. Here's a crazy story. I have friends. that you
go out to dinner with them on a Saturday evening.
So these are, I guess, they just do it on
Saturday nights. After they get home, it's their sexy time
night. And she is forbidden from eating asparagus on a
Saturday evening. I'm going to go ahead. I'm calling it
audible here, Adam. Yes, please do. We're stopping the asparagus
discussion. But I will say a letter to the Royal
Academy was written by Penn, in fact, by Ben Franklin.
And it's commonly referred to as a letter to the
Royal Academy about farting or farting. proudly the name of
the essay about flatulence in 1781 they had flatulence even
back then this is extraordinary it's universally well known that
in digesting our common food there is created or produced
in the bowels of human creatures a great quantity of
wind i mean so eloquent It doesn't even seem like
he's talking about farting. You stopped the asparagus discussion for
that? Yeah, right. I'm just putting any of this. We've
got to move on to the next media deconstructing. Media
take control of this. We left Rob. He's the only
classy one. This is probably a good moment to let
everybody know. That this coming Thursday, so this is the
19th anniversary of No Agenda, 19 years, 18 and a
half of which were with JCD, unfortunately, didn't get to
finish it out. Thursday will be the last, not just
my last episode, but it will be the last episode
of No Agenda. I've been... In long discussions, some degree
negotiations with the Dvorak family, and we have all collectively
agreed that the show is not the show. Without John
and Adam, then I have to agree. This is a
perfect example, this show. Well, this is, yes, this is
quite a good example. And after that, the Dvoraks actually
are going to produce a new show, which will be
Party Line. And they have a whole format and they've
been working on that. Party line show dot com, I
think, is the website. I will continue with we get
to do this. We're actually resurrecting curry and the keeper.
And so I think the troll room will stay. uh
for a long time that's up to void zero um
but i want everyone to know that uh the show
actually will be stopping well wait how's the troll room
going to work though it's going to continue on just
as a Open room will be for those shows. It
was an open room before we even started using it
as the troll room. So it's always been there, and
I don't think that will close. So you can always
go to the troll room. And, of course, there's the
stream. I think that will continue. We have to talk
about some – heart some infrastructure stuff but that's we
decided that's probably the best so we don't quote you
Brunetti's like the last thing we want is no agenda
becomes something like the Scott Adams school of whatever it
was with all the brutal yeah So, you know, hold
on. Take us behind the negotiation here as best you
can. I don't want to. Oh, here we go. What
is going on in this negotiation? Did they want the
brand name? And you said no. Did you both agree?
Be honest. Like, because the no agenda would start them
on third base. And like, maybe you just gifted to
them or they do an earn out or something. Did
that come up as a possible option? Yeah. We talked
about a lot of that, and the – Bottom line
is, there's a business agreement. There's an LLC. It's 50-50,
John and Adam. And of course, Mimi is the successor
to his share. And the problem with a show like
this is if I said, okay, Rob Dew, you be
the new John. In fact, he would literally be the
crack. Potten, I would be the buzzkill in his case.
But I would never be able to give him 50%.
And neither the Dvoraks or the Currys have enough money
to buy the other one out. I mean, for any
of them. I can see this. Let me get in
here as a dealmaker. Okay. I'm going to make the
assets since they're going away. I'm going to put a
value of $100,000 on them and give the family the
asset on a four-year earnout. Every month, $2,000 in the
donations go to you or whatever they want, 10%, 20%
until that's paid off, and then they own 100% of
the asset. So the asset sticks around. But they don't
really want to do a Noah Jones show. All right,
well, then in that case, it's got to die. What
they're going to do is it's going to be a
new format that's going to be different. I hear it's
created by Dana Brunetti. Oh, wow. Executive produced by Bernetti.
It is. Okay, Bernetti, wait a second. You got your
pause in this? Yes. Apparently the idea came up from
a conversation with – Oh, wow. It's becoming a tell-all
now. Wait a second. Hold on. Let me see how
I can spice this up. No, John and I talked
about doing a – We talked many times when I
was on Gummies about potentially doing a podcast because the
conversations were kind of like this. What is going on?
What? And then he came around and said, no, he
said, this would be great. Don't say anymore. We've got
to do this on a podcast, right? No, because we
didn't do a podcast. No, no, but in your private
company, that's how I got the show with John. We
spent an hour a week talking on the phone. This
is convoluted. And then all of a sudden you say,
let's do a show. So Nettie went behind Adam's back
to do a show with JCD. Then Adam went behind
JCD's back to do a show with Pastor Jimmy. And
then the family is doing a show with the ghost
of Scott Adams. I wonder. Can't we just take everybody
who dies, make an AI out of them, and put
them on a show together? Play the clip of this
interview between the – That's not a bad idea. I
sent you a clip. So John and I always talk
about doing this, but neither one of us were ever.
We talk about – there was one that we talked
about, about the wine idiot because he was going to
tell me a bottle of wine to get. And then
he – and then I would talk about like the
idiot. And then he would tell me how I was
an idiot and give me all those details on the
wine. Dana, go ahead. And then that was never going
to happen. John, how did you feel when Burnetti went
behind your back and then tried to steal your co-host?
No, no. How did you actually feel? How did you
feel? No, that had already been done by Andrew. Andrew
had already stole his co-host. No, hold on. Listen, this
is the problem with John because it's a problem. I,
throughout the years, I came up with many good, solid
ideas. The best one, well, we had two. The Podcast
Awards, because I'm uniquely qualified to be the face of
a real podcast awards. I know we're still doing that.
The microphone. You're being an incredible emcee. The microphone company.
This is the one that I'm actually kind of irked
about because he sent me a mic. that came from
China, I'm using it right now, that came from China,
And because, you know, it's all the best one you
can get. It's all about the cap. It's all about
the cap, the capsule. And it's true. And I looked
at the numbers and said, you know, this this could
be a business because we could sell the Curry One
microphone for, you know, 100, 120 bucks. There'd be enough
margin. One hundred twenty. 500. No, no, no. That would
be the Curry 1 signature model. Yes, Jason. Okay, here
we go. Now we're going upscale. This is a good
product. I mean, it's perfect. So I get 20% for
it. Wait a second. You're going rogue, Adam? This is
the problem with this show. Ever since you got into
Christ, you're We're going rogue, okay? Burnetti, we got to
box out Adam because everything with him is just Christ-forward
stuff, and that doesn't fly with the audience. This audience
wants media deconstruction and conspiracy theories and conspiracy theories. to
dunk on the Mac people. That's what we've got to
get back to. Back to patience. And Adam is trying
to get 80% of the royalties on his goddamn microphone.
Were you guys in a standoff? What was going to
tell the truth here? It's the end of the thing.
Tell us about that. No, there was... It was just
a... There was no conflict. No. Oh, no. John and
I? No. The only reason we had an LLC is
because... Because the IRS said, what is it with all
these checks you guys have? You guys are getting $888.88
from this guy, J-Cow. What's up in the Middle East?
What's up with the checks? What's going on here? So
that was the problem. But we had a handshake deal.
I never, never asked for numbers. I never said, hey,
let's do an audit. Because John did everything. He did
all the money. and a newsletter, and I did all
the production. That was the deal. And it didn't matter
how he did his part or I did my part.
We both delivered, and that was it. We... Dude, we
literally never talked except on the show. Never. It's so
incredible. It was like on-air or non-existent. You had an
on-air relationship. It's part of what it worked. I agree.
Yes. It's critical. But we both wanted that. So anyway,
so really…
There is no just who's the Yoko Ono in this?
No, you're Yoko Ono. Is Yoko Ono the Yoko? No,
I'm Sean Lennon. No, no. It was really difficult because.
Well, for two reasons, one. Just like Horowitz, just like
Brunetti. John and I didn't set out to do a
podcast. We were talking for months on Skype when I
was in London. And, you know, he would read the
Sunday Times. I would read the Times of London and
we would just be talking about it and comparing stories.
When you say you would read those, you would read
them to each other? Yeah, we were talking about, oh,
here's what they're reporting here. Oh, that's interesting. The story
here is that – and the internet was – it
was obviously there, but still it was more infancy. All
right. I have a proposal. May I make a proposal?
This is proposal number two. Please. Okay. Here's my idea.
I sent you the AI Scott Adams. Did you? I
did. Have you seen that, Adam? Yes. It's pretty interesting.
It's pretty interesting. Okay. Let me see. Scott. I was
on Scott M's show once. Scott and I had a
little like – Yeah, it was about the January 6ers,
right? Yeah, yeah. He tried to convince me because he's
very convincing that like the January 6 people were there
on a peaceful mission despite like beating cops. Anyway, we
had a lot of fun with it. We had great
discussions. And I really admired Scott obviously for his work.
And then as a broadcaster, you couldn't help – admire
the guy doing 365, 7 a.m. He never missed a
show. It was every single day. He became a great
broadcaster. Now – He had said at one point, I
want to be preserved as an AI and I want
to keep doing the show when I'm gone. And I
thought, wow, this is a very interesting concept. So some
fans made this AI coffee with Scott Adams. It's at
AI Scott Adams. And the people who – It's really
good. And well, here's the thing. I – I sometimes
miss Scott Adams at 7 a.m. because I would be
somewhere in the world. I'd get the alert. I'd listen
to it. He always had an interesting take. I didn't
listen to it every day, but it was – he
always had a good take. And so now the family
is like – but then he kind of rescinded that
he wanted that, and the people who do this Scott
Adams school – which, you know, God love him, whatever.
It's awesome. But it's not – it doesn't hit like
Scott Adams did, and people miss him. They're very upset
at me because I retweeted it or I had the
guy on who makes it. They're doing it as a
nonprofit experiment to see, like – and they believe as
fans of Scott Adams that they should keep doing this.
I think – So having two AIs play the two
of you every week and doing an AI slot version
of it would be exactly what JCD wants. He would
think it's hilarious. And then just – You guys just
collect the money on it, do the value for value,
and just see if AI can redo this. You can
have your bot write everything and pull all the clips
and do it. It would be hilarious. And then I
believe John C. Dvorak would think it's hilarious that a
whole other generation of people listen to him. In the
afterlife as an AI, he would think that was fun,
I think. And I think Scott Adams would love AI
Scott Adams. Now, they're going to get a lot of
feedback. Yeah, the family doesn't agree, though. They don't agree,
which I understand. I have sympathy for them, and I
think they get to make the decision, obviously. But –
How about this? How about this? Why don't we take
a bathroom break? I'm going to play the squeaky chair
because everyone has been talking about it for the past
two hours. Then we'll come back and we'll say our
goodbyes. Well, I'm not going to talk. I'll bring Tina
in. There's Horowitz in the bathroom. I'm actually on the
plane, guys. I got to go. I'm taking off. Thank
you so much for the opportunity here to do whatever
we just did. Thank you. Whatever this was. Whatever this
was. Jason, read your email. I'd like to get you
back on the show. Your last time on the Discipline
Investor podcast in 2008 was the last appearance. And will
you please, Andrew, stop doing that thing with the nuts
and you shake them and then you pop one in.
I'm doing it. They're warm. They're very warm. They're very
warm. Wonderful. Guys, love you. Thanks so much. Love you
too, Andrew. I'll see you on Thursday. All right, everybody,
stand by. We'll be right back. In the morning. the
best media deconstruction Waterfall Forrest Share, Jelly Squeaks. Stories of
lies and of worldwide destruction. I can gently squeeze I
don't know why but it's only I'll grease that thing
Yeah. him. I look at the world and This is
burning chair gently squeaks.
whole gang is here. Gang's all here. Yeah. Oh man.
Okay. So have you done any, how are you? I'm
doing well. Have you done any media deconstruction? Zero. Wait,
wait, wait, wait, Jason, did you just send me $420?
I just said you 420 I said Adam 888 What?
Not 88 I just got a notification Give it to
Tina Give it to the Give it to the Give
it to Jason Split it 50-50 How does this work
Jason? Do you just have unlimited money? And you just
Well okay Here's what's happening He's got a He's got
a Somali daycare Yeah You wouldn't believe it. I'm running
12 Somali daycares, and I got 12 kookaroos too. No,
here's what's happening. These crypto guys created like a Jason
coin or something, like – Years ago. Am I going
to have to pay tax on this? Yeah, of course.
I have no idea how this works. I think if
it's under $600, it's a gift. It's a gift. Yeah,
it's a gift. It's a gift. And then every month
I get like, I don't know, $5,000 to $15,000 in
revenue share. What? Share the wealth. I get revenue share
from the – because I have a lot of followers
on my Twitter – They have this ad share, like
an advertising share they do, create a program that I'm
in. And so every month, like $5,000, $10,000 shows up
from this crypto project, $5,000, $10,000 shows up with this.
And I'm just like, I just give it away on
Twitter when I'm drunk. So is the idea that because
of its fraud, you're not going to – you can
be like, I gave it away. I'm just like, I
don't want this money. I'm giving it away. I mean
I have to pay taxes on it as well. But
then I just give random money to like high-profile people
because I think it's funny. So I just gave the
guy – from Entourage. Oh. Doug Allen. Not Doug Allen,
Jeremy Piven. Adrian. Oh, Jeremy Piven. I'm friends with Adrian,
actually. Oh, name-dropping, name-dropping. There we go. Whatever. It is
what it is, guys. I mean, I also knew John
C. Dvorak. And Adam Curry. Here's the problem with J.
Cal. Well, I know Matt Long and Sir Dusa. And
he's got a weird balding pattern. Right. It's a thing.
And then Bernays. Jason has just dominated this whole. two
hours. He can't be quiet. He's still drunk. I'm hungover.
Goodness. Can I go back? Hold on. Matt Long has
something to say. It may be poor form, but I
want to go back and tell Mr. Brunetti that all
of these yahoos on here are jealous and envious. And
everything that all of us are working towards, a ranch
with horses and, well, I wouldn't put mine in Southern
California or wherever you are. I'm not Southern California. Oh,
you're not? Okay. I'm in California though, but I'm in
Northern California. I'm in a very conservative area. Okay, but
I'm telling you, you do, man, you got the life
there, Mr. Brunetti. Don't let anybody give you any flack
for that, and you enjoy it. You deserve it. Even
though I've never seen any of your dirty movies, I
think you have it. You got it coming. I haven't
seen any of your Satan-loving trans content, Brunetti, and I'm
not making any judgments on this homosexual character. And you
and Floyd, that guy who reached for us, I don't
know if he reached for us with you. Quiet. Matt,
I appreciate it, but you're missing out. Check him out.
You don't have to watch the Fifty Shades one, but
the others, they're pretty good. You've probably seen some of
my movies, just don't realize it. Oh, I have. I
actually have. But Shades of Grey is the only one.
That's your favorite? No, that's not on my list. You're
going straight to hell, Bernetti. You're going straight to hell,
Bernetti. No, apparently Adam and you are going to save
me and prevent that. Matt can join in on that
too. Absolutely. Well, you know, Matt and I, we have
a plan. We just want to bring Brunetti into the
kingdom and have him produce a whole bunch of great
movies. There's this book I hear I can option. The
Bible? Yeah, exactly. It's public domain. I've heard of it.
There's some pretty good stories in there. You know, we
can read. We can make some movies out of them.
Everyone else seems to be doing it. And they're being
successful at it these days. That's what's so exciting, that
Christian movies are actually coming out in their high quality,
and they're being successful. And, man, that's a great place
to be. Yeah. You hear that, Brunetti? You heard it
from Ben Franklin. If we can do it, and I
don't have to have meetings with they, thems, and all
kinds of boxes. and make it all about, I might
reignite my fire. My pronouns are Jesus and Christ. Hey,
actually, no, Jason, we are going to start our AI
studio, me, you, and Adam. Oh. What? You are? What
are we doing? Oh, yeah. You got another thing going?
Yeah, yeah. What do you mean? What are you talking
about? Well, the whole idea was we would rope. J.
Cal in to bring in Elon's secret AI that he
has. He's going to be the deal maker in this.
Yeah, so that we could then create Christian movies with
AI Oh, I didn't know that. Actually, Katzenberg is who
you need to talk to. Katzenberg's got the new AI
studio. We don't want any part of that. Is it
going to be another Quibi, though? Yeah, Quibi, exactly. We
don't want any of that. No, I think it could
be a Lion King, the most proper movie of all
time. But it's animated that he's doing, right? Yeah. He's
going to do an animation studio like he did with
DreamWorks. Me and Adam have Scaramanga. Here's the idea. Scott
Adams, AI Scott Adams is Jesus. AI JCD is Moses.
I'm telling you, it'd be fantastic. Oh, man. You don't
like that plan? Hey, Ducifer, unmute and get in here
before I kick everybody off. he's left no he's still
here he's here I know but he's here but he's
not he's like muting and unmuting once he turned off
the airpods he doesn't know how to hook it up
it's not working I have to say I really enjoyed
meeting Sir Ducifer, quite a handsome fella. I didn't get
to meet his wife, but I made sure my wife
stayed away from him. He was... All right, let's do
some parting words from everybody. And then Tina has been
kind enough to join me to go through copious notes,
which people sent in for this 19th anniversary, which are
really quite lovely. But for me to do all the
notes and get the jingles and everything all set up,
it's kind of like I literally was on my knees
on Thursdays. coming out of the studio. Tina is your
bot today. Well, a bot? No, I'm real. No, she's
real. Last time I said you can have a bot
help you do this. Yes. No, he's got the real
thing right here. Your memory is going, Adam. I draw
the line with these bots, man. We all saw Jack
Dorsey's talking AI. I think it's one of the worst
things he could have put in the marketplace, if he
ever does. I think it's a horrible idea. Okay, are
we going to get to some clips? No. Wow. No.
J. Cal, J. Cal, final word from you. Um, jcd
was an inspiration all seriousness i know he broke my
chops or whatever but um when i was a kid
i would run home to rip open pc magazine and
i would go right to jcd's column and he really
uh set a standard in podcasting and as an opinion
columnist that many generations of tech writers and commentators were
inspired by. And, you know, it did hit me when
he passed, like many of us in the community. And
it's been an honor to come on the program and
remember him and break some chops. And it's all in
great fun. What a great community you guys built. And
my final... pitch i'm going to three pitches deep here
um here's what i think value for value is also
a huge innovation uh that you created um adam i
think just for the fans you should set it up
that everybody can still donate because you got you got
jcd's family everything it's good and adam could use a
little extra chatter on the margins um I think you
should just set it up. Every 10K and donations that
come in, you just do an ad hoc show. And
you just leave the thing up. The counter is there.
If the fans want to hear another show, when it
hits 10,000, you do a show. Actually, I think that's
a cool idea. We could all jump in and do
something. Maybe not this crazy. Yeah, and then it just
goes to the legacy or whatever. You guys chop it
up. It's like we all want to see a kind
of – We don't want to see it go away
100%. We understand people got to go do their other
projects. I should note that we will continue to honor
people who want to finish their knighthoods. Rings will go
out. JCD challenge coins will still go out. We're going
to honor all that for as long as people want.
So we're going to keep that going. Hey, send me
a coin, will you, Adam? Ha! Come pick it up.
Come pick it up. I will come. I'll come to
Old Man Chess. Come pick it up. Come to Bridge
Church on Sunday. I'll give it to you there. I'd
love to. I haven't been to church in a while.
I'd love to come. Yeah. We'll be waiting for you.
Come as you are. We'll be waiting for you. Every
church, it says, come as you are. It'll be fine.
Absolutely. Absolutely. All right, Brunetti. uh what are we doing
tip of the day or this year in history no
we're just like this is you get trying to get
you to hang up yeah this is the goodbye this
is the goodbye this is the hook you got the
hook okay well you can do you want to say
anything Oh, thanks for everything. It's been eye-opening. It was
good chatting with everybody. This was fun doing it with
everybody. I really respect everybody that's on this call right
now and everybody that's been involved in the show. Definitely
people that in my previous circles wouldn't have ever interacted
with, but you guys are more my people. So it's
been a blast, and the No Agenda community is awesome.
And I've loved interacting with them on X. I know
you think that I probably shouldn't. I'm crazy that I
spend too much time on there. But they are really,
really good people. A lot of them are kind of
crazy, but crazy is good. And I appreciate you guys
letting me be a part of this. Matt Long. Man,
this has been great. It's been a real honor. I
found out about No Agenda. Adam hit me in the
mouth only three years ago, and I haven't missed a
show since then, and I'm going to really miss it.
I just want to thank all of y'all for all
the years y'all put into it, and thank you for
welcoming me in at the last minute. Thank you, brother.
Ducifer disconnected, so, well, we know that he was a...
A fan of the show and also contributed a lot
in these past few months. Hey, gentlemen, thank you all
so much. We might do this again. I don't know
why, but it was as train wrecky as it was.
It was kind of fun. I'll do it. Yeah, I
know you. I got nothing else to do. I got
nothing but time. All right. Horses. I got to work
out this six picture deal. And then I'm free. I'm
doing the Adam Curry story and I'm doing the JCD
animated anime series on Disney Plus. Yeah. all right everybody
thank you so much I love you guys and Tina
and I will be right back with the donations and
your lovely notes after this we'll be right back
Jason Calacanis, Dana Brunetti, Matt Long, Andrew Horowitz, and Rob
Deucifer. Here with me now is Tina the Keeper to
help me go through the donations because, man, it's actually
hard to read all of these by myself. I know.
You're exhausted by the time the show is done and
posted. There's also an emotional part, too. Because the things
that people are saying is just lovely. I don't know
if you – well, you rarely listen to the show.
I listen to clips. Clips. I do not listen to
a full podcast anymore. I'm sorry. I told everybody, you
know, what the future is and about the Dvorak's new
show and about we get to do this and Kareem
the Keeper resurrecting. Yes. Why are we doing that? You
just told me we're resurrecting it. It was put on
my heart. God put it on my heart. There you
go. But we need to do it. There you go.
You need your one hour a week to completely belittle
me, which is great. It's a good time. It's a
good time in the studio. It is a good time.
So, yeah. Value for value. We still are value for
value, which means anytime you get value from the show,
all you have to do is put a number to
it and send it back. Your time, your talent, or
your treasure. Time and talent, man, I'm going to have
a lot of people to thank on Thursday's show. I'm
writing down the list. It's like one of those. award-winning
moments where i'm sure i'm forgetting people you know well
no one's going to cut the music so you have
all the time yeah but i mean my brain doesn't
even go back you can do 20 years i don't
know i'll help you uh well definitely want to thank
uh the artists who have always been here from early
on we are doing a different album art for every
single show even though I think Apple supported it, but
Apple actually – put it in their spec, but they
never really showed it until a few years ago with
all the modern podcast apps. Thank you to those guys,
podcastapps.com, where you can still get an alert when a
show goes live. And Scaramanga did the art for us
on the previous episode, which was perfect. It was Brunetti's
hopping truck with his farting dog in the back. And
he himself had just turned into a weed gummy. It
was amazing. That was for episode 1914 titled Thrust Package.
Now let's thank the people who supported us with their
treasure. Kicking it off with Mahinga Silver from Bombay, New
York. comes in with $1,988.18 and says, Thank you, JCD,
Adam and families. Blessings on your continued journeys. Beautiful work.
And we thank you so much, Mahingas. And then the
next one is Laura Hartman Frizzell from Greenville, South Carolina
with $1,000. And no note. No note. So, well, we
should probably give her a double up karma while we're
at it doing that. You've got. Double up. And then
flying in straight from Tokyo, Japan, our day master and
sir Mark, $770, $77.77. Well, there's an angel, beautiful, heavenly
number for you. And she says, or they say, dear
Adam and the dearest Dvorak family, congratulations on an incredible
no agenda journey. From the very first show until today,
it's an absolute proof of what true authenticity with a
twinge of wit can achieve. We're so proud to be
part of the truly global No Agenda Nation, which I
have a feeling No Agenda Nation will continue. I think
the meetups will stay and we'll certainly go to the
meetups if they're here in Fredericksburg. It's impossible to say
or calculate the immeasurable difference John and you made in
our lives every day for 19 years. Thank you for
all your hard work in keeping our amygdala small over
the years. We live better for it. John will stay
very dear in our memory, and no agenda will certainly
live on. Adam, we've always trusted your judgment. We'll keep
listening to you. We will never leave home without those
awesome JCD Challenge coins in our pockets, ants on our
lapels, and ITM rings on our fingers from Dame, Astrid,
and Sir Mark. They are, of course, the Archduchess and
Archduke of Japan and all the disputed islands in the
Japan Sea. The next one is Brian Taylor from Houston,
Texas, $579.33. He says, in the morning, Adam, Brian Taylor
from Katy, Texas here. This $579.33 makes me a knight.
I'd like to be Sir Speed Skater, Knight of the
Attics. Barker Reservoir and Katie Park. That's a mouthful. It
was great to see you again in person at the
fifth semi-annual Fredericksburg meetup at the Full Moon Inn. I'm
glad you got to meet my wife, Karen, and our
son, Logan. He's the love child of the Bastrop meetup.
Oh, yes. Yeah, I remember them. So in a way,
he's a true no-agenda product, and now he's officially been
introduced to the man himself. He's a good-looking kid with
awesome blue eyes, bilingual, ESEN. What is that? ESEN? He
will be on a Linux box shortly. Yeah. I know.
Happy 19th anniversary, and thank you for your courage and
service. Headbangers Ball and Top 20. It's been a minute.
Now for – Now for the important part. We've been
trying to give Logan a sibling, and after a miscarriage
last year, we could really use some no agenda love.
Please hit us with some triple X baby-making karma. Include
a resist we much and clippity-clop for nostalgia. Please have
some magenta symphony second repository. the dough. I'm killing this.
Tequila at the round table. Okay, here we go. Magenta
Symphony Dos. Reposado Tequila. Sir Speed Skater, Knight of the
Attucks, Barker Reservoir and Katie Park from Brian Taylor. It's
Clippity Club. The message is clear. Just Clippity Club. Just
Clippity Club. But resist, we must, we must, and we
will much about that be committed. You've got... There it
is. There it is. We aim to please Joel Cox
from Indianola, Pennsylvania, 575 and 40 cents. In the morning,
Adam and Dvorak family, with this donation of 575.40, I'm
finally making my way to the roundtable after 19 years
of listening. For my knighthood, I'd like to be known
as Sir Engineer of Most Master. of most, master of
none. For the round table, I would like a porterhouse
steak and frites. Adam, John, the Dvorakson, Gitmo Nation, thank
you for 19 years of entertainment, insight, and countless hours
of conspiracy analysis. You've been an amazing conspiracy therapist. Because
of No Agenda, I didn't spiral because of COVID. I
genuinely missed the debates back and forth between you and
John. That chemistry was something special, and it's what kept
me coming back year after year. The one quote I
always remembered hearing from you is, there are no secrets,
only information you don't yet have. True. I will forever
miss John's stories and insights. I always wished he'd written
a book about his experiences. Adam, I'll miss your MTV
stories and the experiences you've shared over the year. Wait
for the book. I will cherish my JCD Challenge coin
after 19 years of listening it'll mean more to me
than just a collectible it will be something tangible to
remember john by and a reminder of all the years
of entertainment wisdom and laughter you both provided i wish
you and the dvorak family all the best and whatever
comes next thank you for your courage for my jingles
i want if you say you see something Say something.
Smokin' Hot Wife Jingle, the one John always hated, and
John's Spooky Donate. I think I have all of those.
Let me see. What was the one? Oh, Boogity. Yeah,
okay. Let me see. Hold on. This is always the
challenge. Boogity, boogity, boogity. There we go. Boogity, boogity, boogity.
Boogity, boogity. The trials and useless and hours If you
see something, say something. You've got... Donate! Donate! Donate! karma.
There you go. Next comes in Brent Stricker from Newport,
Rhode Island, $555. He says, I can't afford a rubble-lyzer,
so here's a triple nickel. Is this the last No
Agenda show? I hope it's great. Thank you for your
courage. Can I get a mac and cheese and little
girl, yay. Adam, God bless. Music You slaves can get
used to mac and cheese. Mac and cheese. Mac and
cheese. Macaroni and cheap cheddar melted together. Mac and cheese.
Mac and cheese. Mac and cheese. Wow! Yeah. Woo! Anonymous,
Westminster, Maryland. Nighting, please pronounce the cape me as sir,
a frothy mix. Night of the Maryland Piedmont. At the
round table, pulled pork and a PBR. Paps, we read
nothing like it. Jingles, I got ants and F cancer.
To the fellow producers of No Agenda Nation, we are
all fortunate and blessed to have been introduced to John
and Adam and the No Agenda way of thinking. I
found out about this community by way of John as
a guest on This Week in Tech and was enamored
by his dry humor and direct no BS attitude. Little
did I know, 1,603 episodes later, I will be submitting
my thesis and receiving a PhD in media deconstruction. We
should give the value for value model the celebration it
deserves by continuing to support Adam in his CVS. Season
of Change. Listen to his podcast with Pastor Jimmy and
give it the full consideration you have given no agenda
over the years, and I guarantee you will find a
lifetime of value above and beyond that of no agenda.
Every one of you have gained the tools of deconstruction
and discernment to apply thoughtfully and carry you forward throughout
the years. As a truck driver by trade, I have
an above average amount of time to listen to all
the great podcasts out there. But I would like to
shout out This Week in Bitcoin by Chris from Jupiter
Broadcasting, who produces Linux Unplugged. For a no agenda perspective,
shout out to the – I think it's funny. I
think I already read this one. Did you? It feels
like it. For a no agenda perspective, shout out to
the Millennial Media Offensive. Both podcasts have adopted the value
for value model and seem to be thriving. I know
I've read this one. I'm not sure how this happened.
Adam, might we hear from Mo of Mo Facts someday
soon? I don't know. Maybe a guest that we get
to do this? I don't know. Could I get me
one of them sweet JCD Challenge coins? It's a pulled
pork at PBR at the round table. All the love
to Mimi and the family. No agenda nation, especially my
fellow truck drivers. And yes, we have the ant song
NF Cancer for you. I got ants. I got ants.
Action! You've got karma. Next up is Ed Crow from
Parts Unknown, and he says, Dear Adam and Dvorak family,
in the morning, thank you for your courage. What a
year 2026 has proven to be, especially with the loss
of our beloved JCD and now the threat of an
exit strategy coming true. As a first episode listener, I
realize at this point I've been listening to John and
keeping me informed, shaping my thinking, and always providing an
entertaining time. I cannot help but mark the end of
an era with a bang of a donation. Thank you,
Adam and Dvorak family, for your years of service, sacrifices,
and immeasurable goodness brought to the world by John and
Adam and all that supported you. I would ask to
be dubbed Sir Ed the Crowbar of Lakewood Ranch. Jingle,
you've got prayers, I've got ants. I will miss you
all. Yours in Christ, Ed Crow. Well, we already did
the ants just a second ago, so we'll give you
the prayers. Prayers. Prayers. Prayers. Prayers. Prayers. $500 from Kynard
Coleman, I think, Santa Rosa Beach, Florida. Hi, Adam. I
retired this year after a 40-year career as a software
developer. I have actually had nerd in my name since
birth. That's right. Kynard. Oh. Decades ago, it was a
PC Magazine subscriber. John's column is the only thing I
still remember about that publication. It was a must-read. I
really liked watching him hosting Silicon Spin 2. He was,
I was a Daily Source Code listener enjoying the tales
of your biodiesel Mercedes. When the two of you paired
to launch Noah Genda, you absolutely captured lightning in a
bottle. There's nothing in the world. else like it. It
has been a great run. Thank you for opening my
eyes via your media deconstruction. Next up, $500 from Gary
Barnick. This donation finishes my knighthood, accounting attached. I started
listening to No Agenda after hearing JCD on Twit sometime
around episode 180. Thanks for all the years of great
entertainment and info. I'll keep up with you on We
Get to Do This and greatly miss John. I'd like
Sir Gary of the Dive as my title. Thank you.
Ethan Folk, New Durham, New Hampshire, $444.44. Here for the
coin, he says. Thanks for the show. Cynthia Schulte from
Vienna, Virginia, $444.38. Thank you, John. And no agenda nation
for your courage. Please grant me baby-making karma as my
husband and I are starting our new adventure. Also, please
dame me Dane Cynthia of the Lowlands. Heart like? Heart
like. Is that Dutch? Yeah. I can't tell. Heart like
a Groot. I will kill that. Cynthia's Holter. You got
it, Cynthia. You've got... Parma. Brandon Ellsbury. Karen Crow, Louisiana,
I believe. 421 and a dime. Well, we knew the
day would come at some point. Brandon says, but it's
never when you want and you can never be ready.
I remember nearly 10 years ago listening to the 10th
anniversary show in college and laughing at all the various
jingle combos and such over nearly seven hours and the
special contraption and the looping song you made for the
nighting segment. It's a journey and experience that I will
truly cherish. Thank you. the man behind the curtain. While
I will always love the show, I also share in
the same sentiment, no agenda is all of us, but
is anchored in Adam and John. Rest in peace, JCD.
You were taken too early, and we all miss you
dearly. With this donation of 421, along with various other
donations and promotions, and along with the JC Challenge coin,
I finally achieved knighthood after all this time. Please knight
me, sir, homebound. Thank you for your courage and Godspeed
in your future endeavors in Christ, says Brandon Ellsbury. Next
up is Glenn DeSantos of the...
Land of SoftBank from Lucasville, Ohio. And he says, Hope
all is well in the Hill Country and with the
Dvorak family. With my latest donation, I have reached knighthood.
Accounting should be attached. I would like to forego knighthood
and instead have you to either save the knighthood for
a deserving producer, or bestow it as you see fit
to who or even a cause you deem worthy. I
do not possess the vocabulary to adequately express my gratitude.
for what you and John have done and what you
continue to do. You've both made a great impact in
so many people's lives, and you'll continue to do the
same. May the best of days lie ahead for you,
yours and the Dvorak's. That's really nice. Alexa Delgado, no
stranger to the spreadsheet from Aptos, California, 40289. Dear Adam
Dvorak family and special guest co-host, I'm donating $388.83 plus
fees today in honor of the late and great John
C. Dvorak. I also would like to have my very
own super sick challenge coin to remember John and the
best podcasts in the universe by. I started listening to
No Agenda in 2016 and never looked back. Started donating
in October of 2017 as a $15.00. $50 a month
night layaway, a nightway planned donor, and upon doing the
math, I am now a Viscountess. I do not require
any additional lands. I'm honestly just happy to be here
and be part of this community. This podcast has had
such a deep impact on me. I'm so grateful for
all the time and effort you and John put into
the show twice a week for 19 years. I did
not expect John's passing to hit me so hard. I
felt as if I'd lost a family member. You know,
how many times have we heard that? So many people
say that. But this show has been like family to
me. Everyone involved from producers like Linda Liu, Gigawatt Coffee,
and the producer that loves America and boobs at the
Archduke of Luna, Kevin McLaughlin, to all the other folks
that help out on the back end, keeping the show
running, to Mimi and the Dvorak family, and to you,
Adam. Thank you, everyone, for making my days twice a
week a bit brighter, lighter, and flippantier. of laughter. Can
I please request John calling Raven and Bambi to the
stage? Also, John's spooky donate jingle. I would also like
to request Nancy Pelosi jobs karma and also request some
baby making karma just in case this is my last
opportunity to do so. Love always from Alex Delgado. Yes,
I think we have just about everything. Oh. Bye. next
Bambi. Bambi up to the stage. Bambi. You've got... Karma
Jobs. Jobs. Jobs. Jobs. Jobs. And Jobs. Let's vote for
Jobs! You've got Donate! Donate! Donate! Karma. A lot of
baby-making karma going on. I like it. More babies. We
need more people. Sir Denonymous here just donated $388.83 plus
the fees. I could not miss out on the opportunity
to get my hands on one of the JCD... Thank
you. Darren and Larry did a fine job, and Dana,
Rob, Andrew, J. Cal, and Matt have been excellent co-hosts
to Adam, and each brought something different to the show
while still being unmistakably no agenda. I also quite like
the musical interludes, too. Without no agenda and without both
of you, I would not be where I am today.
I would not have started Pot Herd and would not
have interacted with so many amazing people. people. I don't
know what the future has in the store, but it's
been an amazing ride up until now. Thank you for
your years of entertainment, and thank you for your courage.
And PodHerd is, sir, Deanonymous, that is the engine that
powers Bingit.io. And any podcast can sign up for it.
So you can get the same amazing search results, clippability,
et cetera, from PodHerd. Justin Gadbury, $400.91, that is a
challenge coin plus fees, has started listening after the first
Rogan appearance. Haven't missed an episode since. No agenda has
become a cherished part of my life, and I'll certainly
miss the twice-weekly M5M deconstruction. Adam, thank you for the
countless hours of insight, humor, and perspective. John is deeply
missed, and while it's hard to see this chapter come
to an end, I wish you nothing but the best
as you embark on your next chapter in serving the
Lord. Thank you for your service, and God bless. In
the morning, sincerely, Justin from North Idaho. P.S., if it's
not too much trouble, can we get a belated happy
birthday to my daughter, Cameron, who officially became a teenager?
major this month. She's on the list. Next up is
Edward Sheldrake, who donated $388.83 plus fees for the JCD
Challenge Coin. All right. Sir JMO, Black Baron of North
Idaho, challenge coin donation, ITM, sorry in advance for the
lengthy note. They always start off that way. As I
approach my 51st birthday on October 23rd, I'm thankful for
the nearly six years I've actively been listening to the
show. The amygdala shrinkage has been a godsend. I actually
tuned into episode one when it came out. Being a
dude named Ben who truly loves tech, I saw a
squirrel and my podcast intake limits were filled with a
certain netcast network for a while. Episodes featuring John were
always my favorite. 2026 has been a hell of a
year with the passing of JCD and a couple of
my family members. I deeply appreciate the work that you,
John, and all the guest hosts have done. Well, no
one can ever replace the buzzkill himself, but I'm sure
he's upstairs listening and enjoying the show. I also started
listening to you too and thoroughly enjoying your podcast with
Pastor Jimmy, and I've enjoyed your journey finding Jesus. I'd
like to give a shout out to Scott and Paul
at the No ID podcast. I've traveled the two hours
for a few sanity brigade, no agenda meetups with these
guys. They are the real deal. Indeed. If any producers
haven't taken the time to listen, it's definitely worth checking
out. The content is Idaho based, but there are takeaways
that affect all of us. My thoughts and prayers go
out to the Curry and Dvorak clans, all of the
extended family, and the hardworking producers. Can you please send
me some jobs, Karma? I've been working with Linda Liu
on securing my future endeavors. For jingles, I'd love to
hear fisting nuts and a sharpener of your choice. Thank
you for your courage, Sir J. Moe Black Baron of
North Idaho. why uh yes we have that of course
just go for john tell us uh your um peeve
about the fisting method might as well do it again
i see this on the airplane and it's very annoying
and i think it will result in in fights breaking
out because it's just so annoying to watch guy takes
his bag of peanuts and he throws a pile of
them into his palm of his hand and then he
makes a fist around the nuts and then he shakes
his fist to try to bring a nut to the
little hole stop and then he throws a nut in
his mouth from his fist then he does it again
he shakes and throws and shakes and throws. It is
annoying as hell to watch. R-E-S-P-I-C-T. Jobs, jobs, jobs, and
jobs. Let's vote for jobs. Yay! You've got karma. Do
you remember when I made that jingle? Yes, I do.
I told the story. Where was it? Oh, was it
the Cludeo? Were you in the Cludeo? No, I think
it was at the penitentiary. Oh, was it? Remember, I
was in bed. Do you remember that? We were in
bed and I said, watch me. Watch me make this.
Watch me produce. I was like, watch me produce this,
baby. I'm so cool. You don't remember that? Nope. I
don't remember. Next up is Robert P. 388.83 plus fees.
Thank you, Adam and John. For your education bestowed to
No Agenda Nation and media deconstruction, may you and the
Dvorak family be blessed forever. Robert P. Dame Bullysteed, Challenge
Coin. I wouldn't think of showing up to an NA
meetup without proper bullcrap detector certification. Challenge Coin. Godspeed. Fair
wins to the NA family. The community has been the
wind beneath your wings, says Dame Bullysteed. Thank you, Dame
Bullysteed. Dame Karen and Knight Bradley Seltor, again, Challenge Coin.
John, we miss you. Adam, we wish you the best
on your further adventures. We have truly enjoyed and appreciated
the show for 19 years. I also want to wish
Dame Karen a 56th happy birthday. Best wishes always from
Dame Karen and Knight Bradley Seltzer. JCV Challenge Coin says,
good luck in retirement. Yeah, good luck with that. There's
no retirement here. You've got many spinning cards. We got
to eat. Yeah, exactly. Got to get a job. Justin
Palmer, Challenge Coin. No jingles, no karma. Thank you for
the best podcast in the universe, Justin Palmer. Sean Fitch,
Challenge Coin. In the morning to you, Adam, and the
rest of Gitmo Nation. I'm writing in from Katy, Texas.
I've been listening for over three years. This is my
first donation, so please do. You've been. D-douched. My deepest
condolences on John's passing for 19 years. You two made
a whole lot of us feel like family. And Adam,
I wish you nothing but the best of your next
chapter. You've earned it. Last year, I got tired of
accepting below baseline as normal and decided to take my
health back from Big Pharma. That led me down the
peptide research rabbit hole, and what I found was frustrating.
I was overpaying. There was no real way to know
what was actually in the vial. So I found it
above baseline. How about that? Because peptides are one of
the most exciting frontiers in research today, and I believe
we're only beginning to understand their true potential. That research
deserves fair price. and confidence in what you're getting. Each
lot we offer is independently tested and verified with its
certificate published and available to all of our customers. For
research, use only... For research use only, disclaimer. Visit AboveBaseline.us,
that's AboveBaseline.us, request site access, and enter ITM15 as your

karma, just love and respect. Thank you so much for
your courage. Sean. William Mountney, Challenge Coin, we miss your
words of wisdom, JCD. None like you shall pass this
way again. And I think Bill actually did the final
end of show mix song for today, which is a
banger. It's beautiful. It's beautiful. Everybody should watch that. You
know him as Bill, not William? Yes, I know him
as Bill. Yeah. Hey there, sir. Daddy cast Baron of
the center of the universe with a challenge coin donation.
Adam, I can not say I look forward to a
future without no agenda show. That I have known and
loved, but I understand for all things there's a season
and all good things must come to an end. The
passing of John was a huge impact and thoughts and
prayers continued to go out to his family, the Noah
Jenner family, and of course you, Adam, and the Keeper.
As an OG producer, you may recall, I used to
send you homemade intros to the Daily Source Code long
before AI was available to improve. Thank you. couple of
shows, what is, has been done with John's collections? I'm
imagining a museum of sorts, perhaps even better, a virtual
visit option. We did talk about this. We thought we
should spray the whole thing with Lucite. So this is
Calacanis' idea. So it's all plastified. Preserved. It's preserved. And
it's an Airbnb for $1,000 a night. John would love
it. Anyway, too long already. Peace as you move on
to the next chapter. And adios, mofos, says Sir Daddycast.
Next is Plum Tucker, another challenge coin. Adam and John,
you've both... You both have had a huge positive impact
on my life in ways that I'll never be able
to put into words. Thank you so much. Anonymous with
a challenge coin donation from Greenville, South Carolina. Thanks, JC

how to view the media and the world around us.
Thanks for introducing us to the guest host as well,
Dana and Dew for the win. I can't pass up
the challenge coin, and while I thought I'd have a
bit more time to do it, I'd like to make
this donation, along with the others I've made beyond my
knighthood, a switcheroo to Dame My Smokin' Hot Wife, PJ
Golden. She's the best thing a fellow could ask for
and the only fight we've ever had. is over Thanksgiving

back and totaling up my monthly payments, adding of this
donation of... $3.88.83 for the challenge coin. I find that

dedouched. Have you ever listened to the donations? Yes. Clearly
not. I do know. Thanks for listening, baby. And some
R2-D2 karma. Do I stop? No, you don't stop there.
It comes at the end. I'm glad that I'm able
to get this in so I can still be knighted
by the Podfather. Having a show you've been listening to
for years go through a big change is sad, but
still look forward to what is to come. I wish
the Curry and Dvorak families the best, keeping this short.
the way John would like it. RIP JCD. You've got...
karma Seth Donnelly, Challenge Coin, rest in power, JCD. May

A pod. Yes. Burn. Burn. Burn. Next is John Lips
with the Challenge Coin. No note. No note. Double up
karma. No note. You've got... Karma. Will from South Carolina
Challenge Coin Donation. After listening to John as the best
part of Twit for a couple of years, I finally
started listening to No Agenda after Adam was on in
2012. I haven't missed an episode since and have never
been disappointed. John's death hit me harder than one might
expect for a man I've never met. My deepest condolences
to the Dvorak family and Adam. Thank you for all
the years of No Agenda. And, Jenna, Adam, I wish
you the best on your future adventures. It has been
inspiring listening to your journey to and with Christ. After
years of a monthly $11.11 subscription, I'm overdue for my
knighting. Please knight me Sir William of the South Carolina
Midlands. Consider it done. Nice. Christian Saunders, Challenge Coin. Godspeed,
gentlemen. Adam, I had to get this in before you
moved on to your next endeavors. I would like to
be Sir Chris Knight of the... I finally got around
to claiming this, so I will be Baronet Chris of

challenge coin. No jingles, no karma, but much love from
Sir Zuki of Enoshima. There's no name on this next
one, but a long note. Do you have a name?
Interesting. It's a $400 donation. That's weird, isn't it? Well,
we'll just call them anonymous for now. Okay. Dear Curry
and Dvorak families, it is truly the end of an
era, something that has been a big part of my
life for the entire 19 years. Adam, it was great
meeting you in Boise. When were you in Boise? Oh,
that was PT. Okay, Christina. Yes. And I hope you
put the knighting sword I gave you to good use.
I will always regret. It's still here somewhere. Yeah, somewhere.
I will always regret. regret never getting to meet John.
For jingles, can I get a new CEO goat karma
from my CEO Mike and the old school we told
you so on No Agenda because over 19 years, you
told me a lot. MP3 attached in case you can't
find it. Oh, that was nice. Sorry for the long
note, but the info below about our startup is something
I know will be of interest to the NA family.
One flag, that jingle sentence was the hardest to clean
up since CEO Goat Karma is ambiguous in the original.
Check that version before you send it. I don't even
know if I have this, unfortunately. I don't think that
came through with it, but I'm looking forward to it.
I'll go on. No Agenda listeners, Barron, Idaho, and Mike
from Maine, along with some industry expert friends, founded a
startup that the people demanded. Fully transparent public funds and
a government contract procurement system where everyone sees where every
pinning goes with permanent forensic accountability. Wow. No Agenda Universe,
we proudly present to you Civic Chain. Towns, counties, state
or federal programs put out bids for work. Road repair,
plowing, construction, grants, missiles, you name it. Civic chain can
make it fully public with no private citizen information ever
visible. Imagine a public works truck pulls up to the
pump to get diesel, uses their Civic chain, MasterCard, Visa,
Google, or Apple Pay, And everyone in town can see
before tires hit pavement. Logged on a public ledger. Natural
disaster emergency? No problem. Hmm. Okay. Yes, there's more. Oh,
there is more? I don't have it. Oh, Bob's Backhoe
Company can be hired, awarded to do the work, and
be paid nearly instantly and independently verifiable. It's an ad,
babe. Oh, I don't care. All protected by a verified
know-your-business vendor network so you can pay your contractors or
find work with confidence. Parented advisory voting technology allows citizens
avoid... before contract procurement is decided by town councils. Wow,
this sounds like something that's amazing. Did they have a
website for this thing? What was it? I only have
half the note. Uh, with the U S genius act
stable coins, we can offer new revenue streams without a
penny of local or state taxation. Money that used to
sit idle can now real earn, real earn real U
S treasury yield, shiny new town trucks and more potholes
filled. Thanks to the genius act stable coins. Uh, what
is the name of this? Oh, civic chain. Civic-chain.com. There
you go. Civic-chain.com. I couldn't find the jingle, unfortunately. It
didn't get attached. So I will give you a service
goat karma and, of course, a classic jingle. We told
you so. No, I can't do it. You've got... See
why I'm so tired? Yes, I'll do the next one
since you finish that up. Alexander S. Tuck. Challenge coin.
No note. Jacob Wicklund's challenge coin. Please see the email.
A note I just sent to adamccurry.com titled The Great
Feminization. Wow. Okay. Hold on a sec. Feminization. Feminization? No,
no. You shouldn't send it to me. No, I don't
have it. Feminization. No, sorry. It didn't come through. Sir
Quill Scout, challenge coin, please officially deduce Sir Quill Scout.
Well done. You've been de-douched. RIP, JCD. A.J. Boland, Northfield,
Minnesota. 388-83 for the challenge coin. Thank you for your
courage, Adam and the Dvorak family. With this, I achieve
my Dame status and secure the JCD challenge coin. May
he rest in peace. I request Hatsake and Unagi at
the roundtable. I will henceforth be known as Dame Siren
Sabotage Saboteur of Subterfuge. Glad you got that one. They
can do it on purpose. This show has been a
companion since 2016, keeping my amygdala small and my sense
of community intact. Connection is truly protection. Love is lit.
Good luck in all future endeavors. And also, how dare
you quit? I'll be super salty in the troll room.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. A millennial
girl, AJ, and millennial girl wants some karma. Happy to
oblige. You've got karma. And William Bracken comes in with
a challenge coin and no note. John always loved getting
those. Yeah, look at the next note. You get them.
You're getting along with... Sir Brian Black Knight of the
Royal Wooten Bassett. He's been around for a while. He's
from Swindon and Wiltshire in the UK. Challenge coin. First,
my condolences to the Dvorak family and everyone coming to
terms with the loss of John C. Dvorak. I've been
a fan of John since the 80s when I was
developing an interest in computers and computing. I loved his
analysis and his clear and direct punctuation. Thank you. I
didn't know who you were or about your MTV career.
I liked your take on things, particularly on the business
side of tech, so I always looked forward to your
appearances. I didn't immediately start listening to No Agenda. Instead,
I joined somewhere in the 40s or 50s. No Agenda
became my solo podcast listen once. Twit became This Week
in Twitter. And I realized the best parts of Twit
had their own podcast. I've been listening to No Agenda.
Thank you. Keeping going at this time must have been
hard, so I appreciate all you've done. I especially want
to thank Darren and Larry for their time filling in.
Me too. I think they did a brilliant job. Also
Mimi, who we all finally got to meet at a
difficult time. She was outstanding. Finally, congratulations on the arrival
of the newest members of the Dvorak and Curry clans,
Nora and Cleo. This is such a good... Such good
news for both families. And I'm... I'm sure they will
keep you busy. I'll continue to listen to the show
and keep on working towards becoming a Duke. I've been
saving towards my Rubberlizer donation because I'm about that far
away at this moment. Best wishes to all for the
future from Brian. Very nice. David Bowker from Mount Juliet,
Tennessee, 38883. And he says, hi, Adam. We want to
see you. Thank you. following your journey as you commit
your life to your walk with Christ. We send our
condolences and love to Mimi and the entire Dvorak family.
This donation for the Challenge Coin and our past donations
and monthly contributions bring my wife and I to the
level of Knight and Dame. We would like to be...
What is this word? Pronouncicated. That's not even a word,
is it? Thank you for listening to the past thousand
episodes of No Agenda. Pronouncicated. Wow! This is what I'm
talking about. That's not a word. You'll hear it again
today. I will pronunciate them. Wow, wow, wow. He's like
listening to the intro like, oh, I got something better
to do. Well, let me finish the note. Dame Jessica

how many people we actually have come to meet. I

of them very well. Nicholas Ficklin, Challenge Coin, ITM and
congratulations on 19 years. After missing the order of the
ant, I knew I could not let the JCD Challenge
Coin pass me by. This donation also more than satisfies
my promise to donate all sales of the limited JCD
bottles, including the few that have yet to sell, for
any producer. If you're a producer looking to get one
of those or simply looking to add some excitement to
mealtime, visit Sklazin.com. S-C-L-A-Z-I-N. Sklazin.com slash J-C-V. I'll be back

I've been here most of the 19 years. What a
long, strange trip it's been. With this donation, I claim
the title of Viscount, accounting below. You've been a part
of my commutes, hikes, and bike rides for a long
time. I even listened while on the... That's the German
word. Reihenfiechrute. Through Germany and the Netherlands. Europe sure has
some great bike routes. Can I get a Don't Eat
Me Joe Biden and some Jobs Karma for my human
resources? Adam, enjoy your new season. Sir Mike in Vegas.
Sir Mike in Vegas. Don't eat me, blow-dried, and you're
spooked. Jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs. Let's vote for jobs.
You got karma.
Summer of 2008, looking for news entertainment on my 45-minute
walk to work every morning in Dublin. I download the
feed from BT Podshow and Cranky Geeks and load it
into my Nokia N810. Oh, man, it's classic. You guys
rooted yourselves into my routine, a friendly and insightful presence
that got me to question the media and look for
my own answers. The camaraderie and the love between you
two. It was easy to think we were all in
the same room with you guys, listening to the friendly
banter, sometimes argued but never held a grudge. I look
forward to every episode. Over the years, no agenda was
always there, always making me laugh, to think, to escape
the daily grind just for a couple of hours. I
never thought it would end. With all things, there is
change. Respect to you guys for providing countless hours of
entertainment, news, discussions, and many laughs. There honestly is no
comparison to what you, Adam, and John have provided. All
the best, Adam, in your future ventures. As was said
in the last show, you're a doer and we need
more people like you. Love to the Dvorak family for
sharing him with us all these years, says Craig P.
Very nice. Michael Fair comes in with a challenge coin
donation. Thank you for your courage. I'm a longtime douchebag,
first-time donor. Well, it needs a de-douche. You've been de-douched.
Good cue. Visual Q. Very good, Ben. Very good. I've
been a listener since double digits, Crackpot and BuzzFeed. kill
have kept me sane in my amygdala small for all
these years. I thank you both for that. I'm going
to say the same thing that thousands of other people
have said, and I mean it just as much as
they have, that the loss of JCD hit me harder
than any sane person thinks it should have. I was
planning on my first donation to be a RubbleLizer donation
so I could have the challenge coin. Then JCD decided
on his exit strategy. So here we are. Adam, thank
you for trying to keep the show going forward as
it has, but it can't and you moving on is
the only same thing for you to do. The show
has its own soul. You and JCD have the chemistry
and to make your conversations worth listening to. When he
said people would want to listen to what You were
talking about all those years ago. He was right. Those
conversations are gone now. You have new conversations that people
will want to listen to. RIP JCD. Michael Ferrer. Don

I think Chow. 388.83. Sir Brian with an eye. Oh,

asked me if. We played it during the show, no
less. Oh, okay. Rare exception. He asked me if he
was thanked, and I said no. Okay. Challenge coin. ITM
in honor of our beloved John C. Dvorak. Please allow
me to receive a challenge coin. Not owning the coin
would be nothing less than bull crap. Speaking of bull
crap, I purchased, that's bullcrap.com, the set up memorial site
for John. If anyone has a favorite JCD clip, please
send it to me and I will add it to
the site. You can contact me at sirbryanwithaneye.com or sirbryanwithaneye.com.
Sir Brian with an I.WTF. And I'm happy to announce
this donation of 38883 upgrades me to Barron. Wow. No
title change requested, though. I'm looking forward to many years
of listening to Adam and Pastor Jimmy on WGTDT and
would like to float the idea that maybe, just maybe,
Adam would consider using one hour a week, maybe on
Wednesdays, to do a lot of work. a podcast with
his lovely roommates in the morning y'all why yes yes
it's happening um the next one just says strike 388

That's been a few rough few months since John's passing,
which I took way harder than I would have figured.
I'm also not at all happy hearing you're moving on
as well, but I certainly understand it. Regardless, I'm very
happy that you'll still be the one upgrading me to
Baron, finally, and that I'll have a challenge coin to
always remember JCD. Might make for a lucky card cover
at the poker table. And I'm finally going to order
my ring. Please give me the shaking of the nuts
on the plane thing. I already did that a couple
times. We did it like five times this show. They
like it. It's what the people want. Okay. Give them
what they want. Shaking of the nuts. All right. We
got that. Shaking of the plane thing. I always felt
attacked by it. but also, oh, I guess he's a,
a nut fister. Oh, but I think it's hilarious. Listen
to that show live. Love to everyone in the no
agenda world. God bless you all. Sir below. Just go
for it, John. Tell us, uh, your, um, peeve about
the fisting method of eating snacks on an airplane. I
see this on the airplane and it's very annoying. And
I think it will result in, in fights breaking out
because it, just so annoying to watch. Guy takes his
bag of peanuts and he throws a pile of them
into his palm of his hand and then he makes
a fist around the nuts. Around the nuts. And then
he shakes his fist to try to bring a nut
to the little hole. Stop. To the little hole. To
the little hole. He throws a nut in his mouth
from his fist. Then he does it again. He shakes
and throws and shakes and throws. It is annoying as
hell to watch. all the way to the end. Yeah,

when a Mexican named Mike introduced me to the show
while driving around. I'm a Mexican named Mike. Right. While
driving around for work, I was listening to a bunch
of Alex Jones in a morning show out of Denver
called Lewis and Floor Wax. It was around that time.
Lewis and Floor Wax in the morning, everybody. How are
you doing? It was around that time that our local
radio station stopped playing Lewis and Floor Wax. So Lewis
became Adam and Floor Wax became John. I don't know
what any of you all looked like. So that mental
imagery was weird for a while, but it worked out.
16 years later, the very second time. same Mexican named
Mike and I are still working together and listening to
No Agenda in the truck. Thanks for everything, Adam. What
you and John did was big. Oh, thank you. That
was really nice. Hey, there's Manuka Gold, the family from
Hudson, Florida, $250. The best cream. And they say from
the Manuka Gold family, we wanted to stop in and
say, thank you for 19 amazing years. And Adam, we're
excited to follow your journey over to WGTDT.com. Listeners, of
course, can still get 20% off all our premium Manuka
honey products over at ManukaGold.com. Adam 20 will stay active
for all our ITM family with infinite gratitude. attitude. Royce
Kokami from Hawaii comes in with $233.99. I'm sad to
see things come to a close, but it's understandable. Ever
since Adam helped Steve Jobs... Get podcasts onto iTunes. I
jumped on the bandwagon and started listening to dozens of
shows over the years, but there were only a finite
of shows that kept rising to the top. No Agenda,
Cranky Greeks, DH, Unplug, and a few others. Also, happy
birthday to my friend Chris and his cousin, Hillary Clinton.
Oh. Just joking. They're not cousins, but I always like
to poke fun since they were both born on October
26th. She's about 100 now, right? I think so. And
can I get a karma shot for Bonnie and John
on their recent move in their wedding? And for Bonnie's
business as well, Bonnie's Bullets and Barrels. Check her out
if you need firearms training. I still follow DH Unplugged,
and I just recently started We Get to Do This,
and I'm looking forward to whatever other endeavors you guys
have. The same things make us laugh, make us cry.
God bless, and take care, Royce. Oh, lovely. Yeah, that
was nice. You've got karma. Ah, he sent me an
email to Baron Anonymous cop. This is a lovely guy.
Green Break, California, 225. Just wanted to toss some shekels
your way for some extraordinary shows, both on No Agenda
and We Get to Do This, especially this last episode
with Dana. As we all maneuver this earthly life of
constant change, keeping our faith and sharing it with others
must be kept alive, not just for our own sanity,
but for the sake of mankind. I hope that makes
sense. I'm coming off a few days of graveyard shift.
I know time doesn't completely heal all wounds. I sincerely
hope things are going well as they possibly can be.
Just wanted to check in. If you happen to come
back up to the Bay Area for a meetup in
the future, I can finally say hi in person. I
still kick myself for not being able to get time
off to see J.D. at any of the meetups over
the whole history of the show. As we say at
the police station, keep on doing God's work. And you
too, brother. That is God's work. Cheers, Baron Anonymous Cop.
And thank you also for all the boots on the
ground over the years. Barb Coons comes in from Parts
Unknown with 224.69 and no note. Skies window cleaning. 2-10-60
from Belfair, Washington. If you've got dirty windows, check out
Sky's Window Cleaning. I wish you were in Fredericksburg. Eli
the Coffee Guy comes up from Bensonville, Illinois with 2-10-25,
and he says, the 19th anniversary of the no agenda
and the – penultimate show is the perfect occasion to
update my peerage status. According to the accounting, I'm a
Grand Duke. Woo! Congrats. To celebrate at the round table,
I would like a Costco Bordeaux and a coffee-rubbed ribeye.
That's Tina's specialty. I do coffee-rubbed tri-tip, actually. With their
espresso. Yes, exactly. I would also like to use the
remainder of my donations to bestow knighthoods on my sons,
Ethan and Miles, as one day this show will be
part of their homeschool curriculum. That's cool. And for them
at the round table, their favorite foods, breast milk and
blueberries. That's the breakfast of champions, people. I can't say
how much the show has meant to me over the
years. Adam, I'm very thankful for you, John, the Dvorak
family, and all the producers who helped make the show
the best podcast in the universe. Could you hail a
taxi at the end of the show for old time's
sake? Godspeed. Stay caffeinated. Eli, the coffee guy. Gosh, I
don't remember hailing a taxi. It was like, taxi! I
think it was just something John did. I think he
just did that live. He did it live, Hailing a
Taxi. You don't have it? No, I think it was
just a thing that he did from time to time.
Thank you, Eli. And thank you, Linda Lupac.
in Castle Rock, Colorado, another staunch supporter of the Noah
Jennings Show, $200. She just wants job karma. And as
always, she says, hey, you know, AI can write your
resume. The problem is he can write everyone else's too.
Linda helps professionals and executives figure out what makes them
different, what makes them valuable, and turns that value into
a resume that... that gets results. Go to imagemakersinc.com. That's
imagemakersinc with a K. And Linda Liu, Dutchess of Jobs,
writer of winning resumes because it takes more than a
good-looking resume. All the best from Linda. Jobs, jobs, jobs,
and jobs. Let's vote for jobs. You've got karma. Can
I just say it's freezing in the studio? My hands
are like ice. Really? That's how I like it, babe.
Yeah. Brian Peel, Lewisburg, Tennessee comes in with $200 and
he says, for a parking lot that no longer looks
like a landfill with stripes on it, go to garbagegoatstn.com
for all your parking lot sweeping litter removal and property
cleanup needs. That's garbagegoatstn.com. And work with Brian Peel and
his licensed and insured Garbage Goats, chief picker-uppers of southern
Middle Tennessee. And some goat karma for the herd, please.
Brian Peel, Lewisburg, Tennessee. P.S. Credit... Credit where due. This
note was put together with some help from Muse. Oh.
Yeah. Adam recommended it strongly. Muse. Regrets it. Cannot take
your call on the big light phone. Big light phone.
You've got... Hey, that concludes our executive and associate executive
producers. You're not done yet. For episode 1915 of the
best podcasts in the universe, our 19th anniversary celebration, which
has been nothing but a train wreck from beginning to
end. But it's been so lovely. Of course, these credits
will always be recognized and utilized. useful anywhere Hollywood credits
are used. So LinkedIn, any of your social media profiles.
And of course, at imdb.com, where you will find thousands
of similar producers, some of them with Hollywood resumes. Thank
you again for your courage and for supporting the No
Agenda show. Our formula is this. We go out. We
hit people in the mouth. And we continue all the
way to the 50s. Michael Eager from North Bethesda. Oh,
wait. No, you missed. Oh, I'm sorry. Thank you. Sergey.
Well, why don't you do that one? Sergey. Timotin from
Burlington, Ontario, Canada. 191. Hold on. I got to get
my cursor up here because I wasn't prepared to read
that one. Hold on. 191.40. Hi, guys. I was really
sad when I found John C. Dvorak passed away. Please
accept this donation and dedouche me. You've been dedouched. Well
done. Hi. While it is not too late and no
agenda is still aired, Sergei from Burlington, Ontario. There's Michael
Eager from North Bethesda. That's a tough one. Massachusetts, $190.30.
Adam and friends, this donation brings to knighthood. I wish
to be called Sir Eager of the Outer Swamp, DMV.
Host of Eager to be Healthy, I wish to have
Dosa. It goes well with the mutton, Linda, Linda Tager,
and Kuch at the table. I have no idea what
that is, but they ordered it. I'm glad you're reading
it. It smells horrible. I wish I had done this
when John was alive. When he got sick, I increased
my donations. He always sounded happy on NA. It kept
his mind sharp, and most of all, we want those
we care about to be healthy. Listening to no agenda
may me a better podcaster. It validated converting to a
cheap, low editing style focused on content. I wanted to
hear myself, Adam. You've always impressed me on the amount
of informational bandwidth you can handle while staying present in
the conversation. Regarding a question you raised in Podcasting 2.0
on video podcasts, for most of us, the video feed
is just a result of using Meet, Skype. Thank you.
Hit him up on X. I will continue to follow
friends of NA with podcasting 2.0 being my favorite so
far. No jingles, no karma, but with gratitude, Sir Eager
of the Outer Swamp, host of Eager to be Healthy.
Next up, Nathan Rocha from Adelaide, South Australia with 136.07.
Hail, comrades. This donation is what? It's Heil. Heil. Heil.
Heil, comrades. Heil. This donation is well overdue and pales.
You don't know. I don't. So back in – this
is PT. Okay. Obama would always say, hi! And we
went, Heil! Okay. Hi, Obama. Hi, comrades. Okay, this donation
is well overdue and pales in comparison to the value
I received over the years. I wish I could have
sent more treasure, but thanks to Elmer Fudd, solo dad
life in this flailing economy of the land down under
has kept things on a tight budget for a while
now. Despite the hard times, I simply could not live
with myself if I remained an internal douchebag. Keep reading.
Oh, and we... And with your pending exit strategy, I
need to rectify this immediately. Please de-do. You've been de-do.
It's harder than it looks, right? It is. I'm telling
you. It's a talent. It's a talent. It's a skill
you develop over the years. And you develop a rhythm,
too. Yes. Anyway. The No Agenda show has been a
regular part of my life since the COVID scam, and
I'm truly Thank you. It's bizarre to feel like I'm
losing two friends despite having never met either of you
in person, which truly speaks to value you have both
provided. There will forever be a no agenda shaped hole
in my life. To see me through the post podcast
times, please dose me up with a healthy serve of
goat karma. Thank you for your courage. May you forever
be in the morning. Thank you. and Roka from Italy,
South Australia. You've got... Harmla. Lasse Jensen I think Lasse
Lasse Jensen from Denmark $100 In the morning this donation
brings me to knighthood all good things must come to
an end and endings are just new beginnings how true
it is Before the mic drop I'd like to be
knighted Sir Ruffin Ruffin Bane of Goblin Ingraciators and Protector

milk. For jingles, can I get a you pigs in
human clothing? Regards and well wishes. Thank you for your
courage. Here is... Liberation! Where did that come from? That's
from a cartoon. And then I mix the marching things
underneath it. Next is Rianne Kaczynski from Carsland. Is that
Alberta? Alberta, yep. Okay. And she gives 88, 88 plus

Oh, Dame Tanya from New York. Yes, I connect with
her on Instagram, New York, New York, 6969. A final
swazzle enough ahead of Adam's final bow. I can't possibly
express how much this show has meant to me. So
I'll just say thank you so much, Adam and John,
for everything and all the fish. Love you all. Do
you know the reference? No. I think it's Monty Python.
Okay. Thank you for the fish. Steven Tesler, West Orange,
New Jersey, My Old Stomping Grounds, 5272. Adam, thank you
for 19 years. He says, you and John have kept
me company when I needed it most. I found you

Yes. And that's a lot of coins. We have a
number of layaway knights. Sir, son of a jack. Let's
see. This is from Greg from Indian Trail, North Carolina.
I've listened to Noah Jen. These are people.
We've been on 11-11 or 12-12 for years. I've listened
to O'Genna since almost the beginning. Pre-show 100 had been
a $5 a month contributor for almost as long. I
realized sometime earlier this year I had reached nighthood, but
I kept putting off of formalizing the deal. When John
died, I knew I had to make this happen, and
now, well, I can't miss the opportunity to have at
least Adam night me. Tina the Keeper has her sword
here as well. Oh, I do. You do. I've missed
the one that I got in Boise. Yes. I miss
my grumpy friend, John. I'll miss you, Adam. I cried
when I read of John's passing, and I cried maybe
even more when I heard you profess your faith in
Christ because it was truly an answered prayer. Thank you,
brother. Appreciate it. So many things to say, but I'll
wrap up by asking you to knight me, sir, son
of a jack. Please serve your darkest imperial stout at
the round table. If it's not too much to ask,
it's been a while since we heard fluoride in your
cup and maybe a WTC7. You know, actually, I can
do those. Let me see. Fluoride. Um, fluoride in my
cup. Where is that thing? Oh, man. Fluoride. I thought
it was fluoride. Oh, fluoride. You're spelling it right? Yeah,
here it is. And the WTC7. Okay, yes, we have
both of those. This heart waking up. His floor right
in my cup. WTC7 won't go away. Mark Dunford, also
layaway night, has achieved 100%. $1,000 level as required by
the peerage committee of the Noah General Show will be
contributing off and on since the streamlined camper days. I
love the show throughout the years. Can't wait for the
Podfather's future products. Hear ye, hear ye. Let it be
known throughout the Central Texas Basin and beyond that this
worthy petitioner seeks recognition among the noble knights of the
No Agenda show in recognition of their allegiance to the
cause, their appreciation of the art of deconstruction, and their
willingness to serve the greater good of the kingdom of
value for value. Yeah. The requested title shall be Knight
of the Central Basin, Defender of the Basin, Servant of
the Producers, Guardian of the Show. Thank you for your
courage, says Mark Dunford. Seth, ITM began my No Agenda
journey sometime in 2020 after hearing on Rogan, episode 1436,
March of 2020, which led me to Mo Fax and
eventually to No Agenda. One day, while listening to episode
1436, I'm going to be a little bit more. 1364
I got some fast food and my order number was
the same as the episode and I knew then the
universe was telling me I needed to donate so I
set up a monthly subscription and I've reached baronet status
over the years I've meant to request my knighting but
always thought I'd do it later with John's passing and
now your confirmed exit strategy I knew I could not
wait any longer I John have done over the years
and wish you the best in your new endeavors. As
I like to say, don't be sad that it's over.
Be happy that it happened. I'm requesting the title of
Sir Seth, Silent Knight of the Uptown, Protector of the
Elder Forest, and he'd like a de-douche. You've been de-douched.
For the roundtable, I request a Jungling Lager and a
medium-rare sirloin. Godspeed. Thank you for your service. The Alex
Mandel, he wants to be Sir Alex of the Floyd
River Valley at the roundtable. protein powder white Russian. bowl
of Texas red chili mix from Green Bay, Wisconsin. Thank
you, Alex Mandel. Sir Deviator and Dame Mamacita. Hello, Adam.
It also layaway night. I've been a listener since the
Daily Source Code days, the first episode of the No
Agenda Show. I'm 50 now. I feel like I've spent
most of my adult years listening to Adam and John.
I've finished a basement, put in a yard, built various
pieces of furniture and driven about 3,800 hours while listening
and being educated and entertained by the two of you.
I came as a fan of Adam's wit and fastidiousness
for supreme power. superb audio quality, but learned to love
John too. He was truly a giant of a man
with an endless well of wisdom. When I first heard
about John's passing, I mourned for him and his family,
then hoped Adam would find a way to keep the
show going. Deep down, I knew that wasn't possible. The
show would never have been the same without JCD. I
became a sustaining producer in April of 2017 when I
starred a month $20.17. I know I received more value
from your news deconstruction perspective on the world than I've
returned, but I feel honored nonetheless to be considered part
of the Noagenda Roundtable. Never claimed my knighthood, but I've
reached it twice because I felt I never had anything
profound to contribute. Didn't want to clutter up the show
with another note, so I'm doing it now. I also
wanted to share my... nighting ceremony with my keeper. I'd
like to be knighted, Sir Deviator, like Dave with Aviator,
I got it, and like my wife to be damed,
Dame Mamacita. Our best wishes to the Dvorak family and
the future version of No Agenda Show, however they may
look. I started to listen to We Get to Do
This, and I've been very interested and encouraged by Adam's
journey to a discipleship of Jesus Christ. Christ. I'd love
to hear your enthusiasm for helping others find salvation. Thank
you for everything. A hearty in the morning, your brother
in Christ, the Sardaviator. Yes, sorry for the long note.
No, you're not. It's literally my first in 19 years.
Ross Reynolds in the morning. It's with great joy and
sadness. I send this email claiming my knighthood and protectorate.
I've been a $4 show donator since February of 2019.
After John's passing, I checked my accounting. I'm at $1,655.
You see how that adds up? I was hit in
the mouth by the Grimericans around the time that I
punched many people in the mouth since then. When I
first heard of Value for Value, I took it to
heart by noting a couple of cases of beer to
Adam directly from my old employer, Austin Beer Works. I
remember. I had a lot of those in the fridge
for a long time. I dropped it off at Adam's
Condo in Austin, then organized the first Austin meetup at
Austin Beer works later that month. You remember there was
like 200 people there. You were there. The knowledge I've
gained about media deconstruction from the best podcasts in the
universe is invaluable and will live on with myself and
all the producers well beyond the life of the show.
Condolences to the Dvorak family. Ross Reynolds of unconsolidated Hayes
County, Texas. For my title and protectorate, I'd like to
humbly claim if available What does it say? Oh, Ross
Reynolds of the unconsolidated Hayes County, Texas, at the round
table of homemade pizza, flavor country pale ale, and traveler's
whiskey. And then the final layaway note from Jeff. Jeff.
Adam, been listening since high school. I'm 33 now, and
what stands out is how steadily the show has been
there. From high school study hall, closing a movie theater
after a long shift, high school heartbreaks and college hangovers,
late-night exam study sessions, traveling alone abroad, marrying my smoking-hot
wife, starting my first job after graduation, and the jobs
that came after. COVID, when the world felt sideways and
a familiar show was something to hold on to. The
birth of my two awesome sons saying goodbye to my
mom after her fight with cancer and a year later,
the heartbreak of losing JCD. Through all of that, no
agenda, wasn't background noise. It was a steady hand. Funny
when I needed a laugh, clear when the news was
a mess, and somehow all I'm most grateful the show
kept showing up alongside those moments week after week for
so many years. Saying goodbye isn't easy. I'll miss it
deeply. Thank you truly for the years of value for
value for the company on hard days and ordinary ones
for a show that felt like a constant while everything
else kept changing. It meant more to me than any
donation could ever capture. Please knight me, Sir Jeff, of
the closed loop and put Jimmy John's number nine on
the round table for me, Jeff from Cincinnati. Okay. Well,

JTGN From the best podcast in the universe, A Little
Farewell. for our favorite media assassin. Thanks for the memories
The Thursdays and the shows Thanks for the memories The
jingles and the trolling and the stories no one knows.
The media deconstruction, the clips that made us groan. And
every time you told us to think things through our
own. Thanks for the memories, the knights and dames we
knew, the value for value, and the producers coming through,
for 19 years of madness, the laughter and the spin.
We came for all the headlines, but stayed for you
and John. So thanks for all the memories, the truth,
the laughs, the fun. The best podcast in the universe,
a most remarkable run. And somewhere in the ether, we
hear that old refrain. The world may keep on spinning,
but it won't sound quite the same. To Adam and
John. Thanks for the memories
In the morning. When we found ourselves in times of
trouble, John would always help us see, speaking words of
wisdom, JCD. And in our hour of darkness, he would
cut right through the sea, barking words of wisdom, JCD.
JCD, JCD, now it's so clear for me. I miss
your words of wisdom, JCD. I think the broken hearted
people listening to the show agree. We loved his snarky
answers, JCD. And though he is departed, his sardonic perspicacity
will live with us forever, JCD. JCD, JCD, I think
we all agree. We miss you in the morning, JCD.
JCD, JCD, I know we all agree. We miss your
words of wisdom, JCD. Yeah, there's some dangerously good tips.
Most people that will supervise you throughout your careers are
full of crap. I can look at a guy and
tell if he's out of a sector. 2015 Beaujolais are
the best since the 1940s. Out the sand, Sauternal Gidulet.
You can get a mink coat on Craigslist for like
100 bucks. The bugs eat the poison plants, we eat
the bugs, and the little boys' dicks start to fall
off. JCD, JCD, JCD. JCD, JCD, I just can't let
it be. I miss your words of wisdom, JCD. If
Adam had a new idea that bordered on insanity, then
Crackpot got the buzzkill, JCD. Tell apart the M5M and
run them through the three by three. Sparking words of
wisdom, JCD. JCD, JCD, RIP, JCD. We thank you for
your courage, JCD. JCD, JCD, RIP, JCD. We miss you
in the morning, JCD. JCD, JCD, JCD. RIP, JCD. We
miss your words of wisdom, JCD. I'm not here. Time's
ever coming. I have my gong and I'm on my
way. Adios, mofos. The best podcast in the universe. Adios,
mofo. Dvorak.org slash N-A. I call bullcrap.
